Story

I am running the London Marathon in memory of my daughter Olive who was stillborn in 2022. Following Olive's birth we were supported by the Ipswich Baby Bereavement Group who provided specialist bereavement support which is ongoing today!

The IBBG supported and provided us with the resources so our family could have precious time with Olive to create memories with her. This was only possible using specialist equipment such as the Cuddle Cot and having the privacy needed in a carefully thoughtout room where she was born and we could spend time together. Without the group, we wouldn't have had the vital support at Olive's birth, as well as throughout our pregnancy with our son, Albert. We would love to be able to support other families who find themselves in the same heart-breaking situation and ensure they receive the same level of care and support as us.

Any donations would be hugely appreciated - thank you.
