Cot death is the UK’s biggest killer of babies over one month old

The Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths (FSID) funds research into the causes and prevention of cot death, as well as supporting bereaved families, promoting safe baby care advice and working with professionals to improve investigations when a baby dies.

FSID’s “Back to Sleep” campaign has helped reduce cot death by 75%, and we estimate that more than 20,000 babies have been saved since the charity began.

However, it is only with your help that we can continue this lifesaving work to make cot death a thing of the past once and for all.

"I ran for FSID to raise awareness of its cause and to spare other people going through the agony of cot death. FSID was a fantastic support from the moment I signed up. It was a huge challenge but so worth it, and I surprised myself by raising much more than the minimum in the end! "

Steve Montague, who ran the Great North Run for FSID in 2007
