Pete Jackson, South Ferriby employee, and his family have launched an appeal to help fund a new Maternity Bereavement Suite at Scunthorpe Hospital for parents who lose a baby or experience difficulties in childbirth.
Pete and his wife suffered the very sad loss of their daughter, Alicia, who was stillborn. Scunthorpe Hospital do not have a bereavement suite so there was nowhere private for them and their family to spend the time they needed with their daughter before they said goodbye to her. They feel that a bereavement suite would have made a difference to them so they have launched a fundraising appeal to make this happen.
Pete’s brother-in-law is going to buy a cheap motorcycle and with Pete riding alongside, they will attempt to ride the 874 miles from John O’Groats to Lands’ End in 24 hours.
