As a midwife, I have the privilege of welcoming new life into families, but with that also come the responsibility of walking with families as they grieve infant-loss. Baby loss will touch 1:4 families. As a student, I trained with Abigail's Footsteps and have carried that education with me in supporting families following loss.

Since 2010, Abigail’s Footsteps has supported families after baby loss across the UK. They improve hospital care by creating compassionate spaces, providing Abi Cooling Cots so parents can spend precious time with their baby, and offering specialist baby loss counselling. They also train midwives and healthcare professionals to deliver sensitive, dignified care. Every donation helps ensure no family faces this journey alone.

On October 11th, I will be running the London Parks Half Marathon for every family that I have supported in their loss - please join me in supporting Abigail's Footsteps, every pound makes a difference.
