DePuy Synthes Cork City Marathon Team 2023

Raising money for Feileacain (Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Association of Ireland)

Féileacáin is a newly formed, not for profit organisation that aims to offer support to anyone affected by the death of a baby during pregnancy or shortly after. We provide 'Remembering' Memory Boxes, Counselling service, Cuddle Cots, befriending service, support meetings and a support helpline.

Story

This year, we’re running the Cork City Marathon in aid of Féileacáin.

Each step, is a sombre memory of loved ones who’s lives were loved, yet barely lived. Each step, is a movement of solidarity to show compassion and warmth in the face of loss. Each step, is a reminder of another not taken.

Join us on this journey- in remembrance, in solidarity and in bereavement.

Here’s a rundown of just how important and instrumental your support is;

€50 could provide a Memory Box to a bereaved family to ensure they can make memories with their babies.

€150 could be used to fund a facilitated Support Meeting for up to 30 bereaved parents.

€200 could fund the Féileacáin helpline for one month!

€300 could fund bereavement and befriending training for up to 20 volunteers.
