Follow Up: International Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day Luncheon 15/10/2013

I just realised, I still hadn't written a post about the luncheon.

I'm very happy to say it was a great success. We had a lovely bunch of people join us; and together with our wonderful raffle (thanks to some very generous sponsors), we were able to raise a total of $1260 for SANDS Queensland.

MP for Longman, Wyatt Roy kindly joined us for the afternoon, and spent time mingling with those who had attended. We were very grateful for his presence.

Both Nicole Ireland (SANDS QLD President) and I spoke about baby loss, Kate Bryant read a poem, we had a candle lighting ceremony, and showed a powerpoint about the statistics of loss.

Thank you for all those who attended, and helped support bereaved parents accross Queensland. A particular mention to Ashley Horne, and the staff at Beachmere Tavern for sponsoring the event.

Here are some pictures from the day:
