Episode 13: Big Steps For Small Feet

July 06, 2022 • Held In Our Hearts • Season 1 • Episode 13

Tracy talks to Michael McQuire from Fort William and his incredible journey as a bereaved dad and how he channeled his own grief after the death of his beautiful son Kyle to support others.

From setting up the charity Aman Cara and working tirelessly to fund a place that parents can go after the death of their baby.

He talks about his dream to see baby loss charities unite and climb his beloved Ben Nevis together and in setting up Big Steps for Small Feet that dream became a reality in 2021 and again in 2022 where 74 hardy souls were about to tackle Snowdon in Wales.

He talks about his love for his daughter Amelia and his wife Rachel who have worked hard to support his challenges and how he is grateful to everyone who has made it possible to work together on such amazing projects.
