A gentle light in the darkest of times
At Light in the Dark, we believe that even in moments of profound loss, there is still room for hope, dignity, and tender care. Our journey began with a deeply personal experience, transforming pain into purpose to support families in Bradford, United Kingdom, and beyond. We are here to hold space, offer comfort, and ensure no one walks this path alone.

Born from love, shaped by loss
Light in the Dark was lovingly founded in memory of our son, Reuben. His life, and his loss, illuminated the critical need for compassion and gentle support for families enduring unimaginable heartache. In those tender, fragile moments, the profound importance of a cold cot became clear – not just as medical equipment, but as a precious gift of time. Time to hold, to create memories, and to say goodbye with love, not haste. Reuben’s memory lives on through this work.

Bringing dignity and time, together
The core of our mission is to provide families with the invaluable gift of time through cold cot donations. This allows parents to spend precious moments with their baby after loss, creating memories and saying goodbye at their own pace. You are a vital part of this journey. Every purchase, every share, every act of support helps us place cold cots where they are most needed, ensuring no family faces such profound moments without compassion and support.
"We believe in turning pain into purpose, ensuring that no family faces loss without compassion, dignity, and the precious gift of time. Our mission is to shine a gentle light in the darkest of hours."
