We were blown away by the dedication and courage of our intrepid abseilers on Sunday 15th October. Everyone braved the Ultimate Forth Rail Bridge Abseil to raise funds for our work and we are so grateful for their support.
The group were all incredible, in conquering their fears and taking on the challenge. For some it was in memory of friends’ and families’ precious babies and for some supporters it was a chance to remember their own sons or daughters, who are much loved and missed every day.
The current total raised is £9075.32 which is simply amazing and will make a real difference to bereaved families in Edinburgh and the Lothians. A huge thank you to each and every one of you, as well as all the people that generously supported you as well.
The day was made all the more special because it was the last day of Baby Loss Awareness Week which is 9th-15th October and is an opportunity for week for families and friends to share their stories and talk about baby loss, helping to raise awareness and break the silence.
