After the passing of our son, Conor, we decided that we couldn't just sit back and do nothing, we decided to help the Foundation
for the Study of Infant Deaths raise money for research and support for bereaved parents. Below you will find details of events
we are organizing to raise money.
If you have any views or ideas about what we are doing please get in touch, we'd love to hear from you.
2nd - 9th May is Cot Death Awareness Week and the theme this year is the Big Push.
Well we managed to complete our 5 mile oush of a 7.5 tonne lorry in a little under 2 hours. The day was enjoyed by all
but more importantly than that we managed to raise over £1700 in sponsorships. A fantastic effort!
We are also organizing a 60's night for the 11th May.
Well what a fantasic night we had on this night, between donations, the raffles and the auction we managed to raise over
£2000, bringing the total to £3700 - infact we are actually hoping to hit the £4000 barrier but we wont know that until we
have counted up all the money, the final grand total will be published on this page so watch this space.
The total amount raised was a fantastic £4207.13
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have helped in one way or another with the fundraising,
