Footprints Baby Loss is a bereavement charity that provides vital support to parents and families who experience the death of one or more of their twins or triplets before, during, or after birth.
‘We are a charity run by bereaved parents, for bereaved parents,’ Sharon and Suzie.
Our support is provided by those who have had first-hand experience of twin or triplet loss. We understand the value of having a safe space to be able to communicate with someone who has been through something similar and provide a kind, caring, and inclusive approach to our bereavement services.
We provide bereavement support in the form of befriending, online support groups, and an online community private group. You can find out more details on our website.
“Footprints Baby Loss Charity is pleased to partner with Loss Books UK. The beautifully worded and illustrated twin, triplet, multiple baby loss memory book series can help families and siblings talk about their grief and loss.”
Sharon Darke – Co-Founder
My name is Sharon Darke and I found out I was expecting identical twin boys during my first pregnancy. I was so excited. My twin boys Charlie and Joshua were born at 26 weeks in September 1999, Charlie lived for 7 days, and Joshua lived for 13 days. I have worked in the Baby Loss sector for almost 24 years, volunteering as a befriender for 14 years before my role as the Twin and Triplet bereavement lead at another charity. I have two other ‘grown-up’ children, Jess and Samuel. I am also a teacher. I am so proud to have set up this charity with my friend Suzie, and we hope it will provide valuable support for many others who have experienced the death of one or more of their twins or triplets.
Suzie Scofield – Co-Founder
My name is Suzie Scofield and I fell pregnant with twins in 2012. Rory died in utero at 21 weeks and Daniel was born prematurely at 29 weeks but died the day after he was born. I first met Sharon when I was put in touch with her for peer-to-peer support soon after my twins died. She was such an incredible lifeline at a time when I felt very lost and alone in my grief. Over the past decade, I have both volunteered and worked in the baby loss charity sector. I am also a qualified Occupational Therapist and Florist, and mum to my three living children. Launching Footprints Baby Loss Charity is a very special way to honour the memory of our twins and make sure that vital support from those with lived experience is available to others who sadly experience the loss of one or more of their twins or triplets.
