Story

Throughout the month of October and in support of Baby Loss Awareness week, I will be taking part in Miles in Memory 2023 to raise vital funds in aid of Aching Arms.

As you will know we lost our precious baby boy at 16 weeks gestation and his due date would have been 23 October 2023. Damian and I are trying to raise some money for Aching Arms as they provide comfort bears to families who have experienced a loss of a baby. We received our bear as we were leaving the hospital after saying goodbye to our beautiful boy. It gave us so much comfort knowing we weren't alone in our grief and we want other families to feel the same if they ever face the devastation of baby loss.

All donations are gratefully received and will have a big impact in offering comfort and support to bereaved families.

If you are a UK tax payer, please remember to Gift Aid your donation, which boosts it by 25% at no extra cost to you, and makes a big difference to the charity.

Thank you so much for your donation!
