The Sandhu Charitable Foundation have donated the sum of £10,000 to The Lullaby Trust following an urgent appeal for funds from the Trust who have seen a huge drop in funding being received with their services being needed now more than ever before. Every area of the Trust’s work has been impacted. The support available to families with young babies has decreased and they are working hard to ensure life-saving safer sleep messages reach families. The impact of restrictions such as the number of people who can attend a funeral is great and it is imperative that the Trust’s support services continue to be available during this time.
