Theo's Foundation is a non-profit organisation, that offers bereavement support to whole families who have lost a child of any age, we aim to support families through all types of loss. We are striving to make a stampede of change, safeguarding little people with our baby, infant and child-loss charity. 

We are based in Sheerness in Kent and are working closely in our local community to raise awareness, however - our aim is to support families and create change across the United Kingdom. 

At Theo's Foundation, we understand the profound pain and grief that comes with losing a child. Our mission is to provide support and comfort to families going through this heart-wrenching experience. Theo Sam Lee Pepper was born sleeping in October 2023 due to medical negligence. After our devastating loss we received little to no support from the professionals and felt very much alone and that our Son didn't matter to the healthcare professionals. To learn more about what had happened to Theo you can read about it on our Theo's Story page.

After investigations and press launches we found that we weren't alone with our experience of maternity care, people from up and down the country had contacted us with their stories too, which is why we wanted to create a foundation in Theo's memory to help others who have been affected and had felt so terribly lost and alone.

We want to create changes to legislations, to create improvements in the way families are treated and ensure that the whole family could receive support not just the parents as we know that child loss affects whole families not individuals. 

We want to create changes to ensure that little lives are protected where they can be and when they aren't that action can be taken and the right support is given to the families of those affected, when they need support - for however long they need support. Not just a few weeks, because losing a child is something that you never "get over" and ongoing support is required. We didn't get signposted to any further support or aftercare, or know where to turn. So we decided that we wanted to create a space online so that families could be given the links to our Socials or Website and from here find a wide variety of support, from self-help to access to other support through various charities, organisations and helplines. 

After we had decided on starting Theo's Foundation we decided our mission goal and proudly use his initials TSLP - Theo Safeguarding Little People. During the pregnancy Theo had somehow accumulated a lot of things with elephants on - clothing, toys, pictures etc this is why we chose to create a stampede for Theo and for change...because EVERY life is precious!
