Tough Mudder challengers raise over £1500 for DG Sands
Dumfries and Galloway Sands were delighted to receive a cheque for an amazing £1556.63 from Julie McClelland, a Health Care Assistant at Cresswell, and her friends who completed the Tough Mudder at Drumlanrigg on 20th June. Julie’s team called themselves The Fat and the Furious and were spurred on to raise the money for Sands after one of Julie’s friends suffered a stillbirth.
A big thank you goes to the whole team.
Next Support Meeting
The next support group meeting is planned for
7th November: 7.30pm
and we welcome anyone touched by the death of a baby to join us.
The meeting will be held at our office at 107 Irish Street Dumfries.
Many people feel that only others who have experienced the death of a baby can offer real understanding of the pain and heartbreak that they are feeling and the support group meetings allow you to connect with other bereaved parents, grandparents and others who share your pain and loss.
The support group is an informal setting and is only attended by people who themselves have lost a baby or their families. You will not be pressured to speak and sometimes it’s nice just to simply come along and listen.
If anyone would like more information about these meetings or would like to express an interest in attending then please email contact@dg-sands.org
