We’ve still got a couple of spots left for those who want to represent the Silent Footprints Foundation team in an upcoming male mental health tournament at Brunton Park on 29th May 2026 ⚽

We are looking for dads, grandads, uncles, god fathers etc who have been affected by pregnancy or baby loss. It’s a great chance to get involved, raise awareness, and be part of something that supports men’s mental health in a positive, supportive environment.

If you’re interested in playing or want to find out more, drop us a message and we’ll get you involved.

Today we honour the mothers whose arms may be empty, but whose hearts will always hold their babies. 🤍

This Mother’s Day we remember the precious little lives who left footprints on their mothers’ hearts forever. Whether your loss was through miscarriage at any stage, medical termination, stillbirth, or infant loss, your baby matters, your motherhood matters, and your love will never fade.

Your child may be in Heaven, but they will always be part of you.

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”
— Psalm 147:3

From all of us at Silent Footprints Foundation, we see you, we honour you, and we hold space for your love and your grief today.

Meet session on Monday evening for anyone that needs to talk. Message for details or check our website

Once you’ve had a miscarriage,
that sadness that never really leaves.

It doesn’t stop you from living.
It doesn’t always bring tears.
Most days, no one would even know it’s there.

But it shows up in small, unexpected ways.
In dates you remember alone.
In babies who would be the same age.
In a life you imagined but never got to meet.

You move forward.
You smile.
You build joy again.

And still, there’s a part of you that stays tender.
A grief without a finish line.
Something you learn to carry,
even on the days you feel okay.

💙 CALLING DADS & FAMILIES AFFECTED BY PREGNANCY OR BABY LOSS 💙
Silent Footprints Foundation is putting together a team for an upcoming charity football tournament, and we’d love for you to be part of it.

This invitation is especially for dads who have experienced the loss of a baby, but also for family members who have been affected by baby loss — brothers, uncles, grandparents, friends — anyone who carries that love and that loss.
Football has a powerful way of bringing people together. This isn’t about ability or fitness — it’s about connection, support, remembrance, and standing shoulder to shoulder with others who understand.

⚽ The tournament will be played at Brunton Park, the Home of Carlisle United — a truly special venue and an unforgettable experience.
By pulling on the shirt, you’ll be helping raise awareness for baby loss, honouring our babies, and showing that no one has to walk this path alone.

If you’d like to play, know someone who might, or just want more information, please comment below or send us a private message.

Together, we remember. Together, we support.

Everything we raise goes towards running our ongoing peer support sessions, chaperone services and events helping everyone affected by miscarriage and baby loss at any stage.

There is nothing like us locally that provides this kind of support for all walks and types of loss.

We will have collection tins on the day also for those wanting to cash donate on the day. Would be lovely to see you come and support us and all the other brave people raising for other amazing and much needed charities and community services.

We go in the sea at 10:30am!

Thank you 🙏
