Raising funds in Siobhan’s memory to support young families through grief and loss.

Papamoa Beach, Papamoa

After losing my wife, Siobhan, our lives changed forever. She was an incredible wife, mum, daughter, sister and friend, and she brought so much love, kindness and laughter to everyone around her.

Over the past few months, I have seen first-hand how hard it is for young families dealing with the loss of a parent or child. There is support out there, but when you are grieving, it can be difficult to know where to start or even what help you need.

Siobhan was a passionate midwife who cared deeply for women, babies, and families she supported throughout pregnancy, birth and postnatal care. We want to try and turn this heartbreaking experience into something positive by helping other families who find themselves facing the same unimaginable loss.

Any donations received will go towards supporting young families through grief, whether that is helping with practical costs, counselling, memory-making, time away together, or connecting families with the right support when they need it most.

Thank you for all the love, support and kindness shown to our family. Keeping Siobhan’s name alive by helping others feels like a small way to honour the amazing person she was.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
