Our Founder, Claire Foord
Still Aware was formed by mother to a baby born still, at 9 months in South Australia. Alfie Foord-Heath was born without breath on February 12, 2014. With no rhyme or reason for the death of this healthy baby girl, her mother and father – under the guidance of the Still Aware Board and Clinical Advisory Board, with your help – seek to change how we talk about stillbirth prior to the tragedy, educating for awareness and raising awareness for prevention.
