Cumberland Society raise £650 for DG Sands 18 May 2015

Cumberland Society of Chartered Accountants were pleased to support Dumfries and Galloway Sands at their recent annual dinner.

Lisa Murchie, Chair of the Cumberland Society of Chartered Accountants, chose the charity to benefit from the raffle at the evening event held at the Roundthorn Hotel in Penrith which was attended by 75 guests and a wonderful £650 was raised for Dumfries and Galloway Sands the stillbirth and neonatal death charity.

Lisa who works for Dodd & Co in Carlisle decided that Dumfries and Galloway Sands should benefit from the raffle because of the support that was given to her good friends Suzanne and Eddie Hewson after the tragic death of their little boy Oliver.

Thanks again to all the local businesses who donated prizes for the charity raffle and everyone who attended and supported the evening.

About Dumfries and Galloway Sands

Dumfries and Galloway Sands is a voluntary group of parents who have all experienced the death of a baby, either during pregnancy or soon after the birth. Our experiences vary widely but we all share the common experience of grieving for our children and trying to find a way to live with our loss. We are not a professional health team or trained counsellors, just parents who know how devastating the death of a baby can be. We aim is to offer support, understanding, comfort and most importantly, a listening ear. We are able to offer telephone support and one to one personal support. More details can be found at dg-sands.org
