The Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths is the UK’s leading baby charity aiming to prevent unexpected deaths in infancy and promote infant health.
When a baby dies suddenly and unexpectedly, the death is a terrible shock and can be one of the most distressing events that can ever happen.
In Worthing West Sussex on Sunday the 3rd October 2010 there is a charity football match between Arsenal (ex pros and celebrities) VS FISD All Stars. The charity match is to help raise funds for the Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths who support families whose babies have died suddenly and unexpectedly.
The monies raised will help towards:
Disseminating information on infant health, baby care and sudden infant deaths to health professionals and the general public
working with professionals to improve investigations when a baby dies.
A Helpline for parents, carers and health professionals and bereaved families.
A wide range of publications and resources on reducing the risk of cot death and safe baby care.
A network of trained befrienders to support bereaved families.
A phone card to enable bereaved parents to call their Helpline free of charge.
A busy programme of training, events and Family Days Out throughout the UK.
The Care of Next Infant (CONI) Scheme, with the NHS, to support bereaved families when they have subsequent babies.
There will lots of entertainment for all the family on the day including bouncy castle, face painting and a raffle.
