Staff and tots from Padiham nursery Little Acorns complete sponsored walk for very special cause

The walk around Gawthorpe park was for Maggie’s Stillbirth Legacy, a charity that helps bereaved families worldwide.

Explaining the reason for the walk nursery manager Ria Hargreaves said: “Recently one of our families suffered the devastating loss, very unexpectedly, of their four and a half month old son Yusuf.

“This came as a complete shock to the family as well as to us as a nursery. As a nursery we wanted to raise more awareness around SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).

“Our children had lots of fun on the walk and so far we have raised £140 and counting.”
