Stillbirth and Neo-Natal Death Society/Epilepsy Society: These two marvellous charities are receiving funds from The Conveyancing Foundation.
Each has received £1,000 after being nominated by staff at Convey Law; its clients raised the money by taking part in the Foundation’s Charity Lotto.
Lauren Forbes, a Conveyancer at Convey Law, nominated SANDS as a worthy recipient of a charity donation in recognition of the support her brother and his wife received after their baby Finn was tragically stillborn at 32 weeks in 2013.
She says: “SANDS really helped my brother Kyle and my sister-in-law Hannah when their little boy Finn was stillborn. Even when they went on to have their daughter April, who is now seven, my brother found it hard to walk past the delivery suite Finn was born in when he visited April and Hannah.
“SANDS provided vital help and support to them after an awful tragedy that no-one ever expects to go through when they have a baby. As their experience showed, it is not an event you can just get over but something that is always with you that you learn to live with through the invaluable help of organisations like SANDS.”
The Epilepsy Society is the UK’s leading provider of epilepsy services. It was nominated for help by epilepsy sufferer Stefan Lewis-Davies, who works in the Finance Department of Convey Law.
Stefan, who was only diagnosed in 2013, said the society helps to provide vital support to sufferers and also raise awareness of the life-threatening condition. He says: “I have suffered multiple seizures over the last eight years, the most recent towards the latter end of 2020. Each seizure can be different and life-threatening.”
Agents Giving: The Agents Giving Charity Ball sponsored by HomeLet and Let Alliance and supported by Reapit and Foxtons will take place on Friday September 24.
Michael Stoop, chairman of Agents Giving, says: “We have read about so many wonderful fundraising events and seen examples of truly heartwarming stories – well done to everyone. This once again highlights that there are so many of you doing some fantastic charity, fundraising and community work and have been during some challenging times”.
