The Lullaby Trust exists to keep babies safe and to keep grieving families supported. We fund life-saving research, empower families with expert baby safety advice and support grieving families through their darkest days. We won’t give up until no baby dies suddenly or unexpectedly.

Story

Welcome to my JustGiving page! On April 21st 2024, I will be taking on the exciting, yet extremely daunting challenge of running the London Marathon as part of The Lullaby Trust's fabulous team!

The Lullaby Trust raises awareness of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), provides expert advice on safer sleep for babies and offers emotional support for bereaved families helping re-build their lives after loss.

As a mummy to two little girls myself, the thought of losing a child is completely unbearable. SIDS currently claims the lives of around 168 babies a year, around 3 babies a week. Since the 'Back to sleep' message was launched in 1991 the rate of SIDS has reduced by 83%, which is incredible. The Lullaby Trust are entirely reliant on donations so their vital work can continue. Their support helps bereft parents carry on living.

I will run this because I can. I will run it for all those children who were taken too soon and for all the parents who have suffered the agony of losing a child.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
