Since 2010, Abigail's Footsteps have worked to improve the way bereaved parents are cared for by hospitals and to better educate midwives on how to care for grieving parents.

Abigail's Footsteps also help by creating sympathetic space for parents in hospitals, to providing much needed equipment for parents to spend longer with their babies whilst also offering specialist baby loss counselling sessions.

Please help us raise vital funds so we can continue to support bereaved families.

Thank you.

Our Story

As I turn 40 this November, I wanted to mark this milestone in a way that means something far greater than just a celebration for myself. I want to shine a light on something that has shaped our lives in ways words can barely capture.

Over the years, we have faced the heartbreak of losing five pregnancies. Each loss carried its own pain, its own grief, and its own set of unanswered questions. There is no roadmap for how to navigate that kind of sorrow—no manual for how to pick up the pieces when your hopes for the future are suddenly shattered.

Through it all, what has become clear is that pregnancy and baby loss is something that affects far more families than we ever realised. Yet, it is still something so many feel unable to talk about. Too often, parents are left feeling isolated in their grief, struggling in silence.

That’s why we are supporting Abigail’s Footsteps. This incredible charity works tirelessly to raise awareness of baby loss, provide vital bereavement training for healthcare professionals, and ensure that families going through the darkest of times receive the compassion, support, and dignity they need.

By fundraising for Abigail’s Footsteps, we hope to honour the babies we never got to hold in our arms, but who will always hold a place in our hearts. We also want to help other families who face this unimaginable loss, so they don’t feel alone as we once did.

If you are able to give—even a small amount—you will be helping to make sure more parents receive the care, understanding, and support they so desperately need. And if you can’t give, simply sharing our story means the world.

Together, we can break the silence around pregnancy and baby loss and make a difference in honour of all the little lives that ended too soon.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for standing with us.
