Our cause: a story of love and light

At Light in the Dark, our mission is deeply personal. It began when our beautiful son, Reuben, lived for 54 precious minutes after being born at 20 weeks and 4 days. In that short time, all he knew was love. Light in the Dark was created to honour his memory, turning grief into something meaningful. We are raising funds for a cold cot, a gift of time that means more than words can describe to families facing loss. Every product, every bit of support, helps keep Reuben's light shining and provides comfort to others, ensuring other families have that same opportunity to spend time with their babies.

Spreading light and understanding

We hope that after learning about our cause, you take away a profound sense of love, compassion, and understanding. Even through the deepest grief, something meaningful and positive can grow. We want you to feel connected to the purpose behind Light in the Dark, knowing that every bit of your support helps turn love into comfort for other families, while keeping Reuben’s memory and light shining on.

"Every candle lit, every wax melt warmed, keeps reuben's light shining for other families."
