<p><span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;" lang="EN-US">TAMBA (the Twin and Multiple Birth Association) is a charity set up by parents of twins, triplets and higher multiples and interested professionals. TAMBA's campaigns, research and support services directly help thousands of parents and professionals meet the unique challenges that multiple birth families face. They have specific support groups to help parents of twins with Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome, single parents caring for multiples and parents of multiples with special needs. TAMBA also organise events and courses for families with multiples, to get them out of the house and introduce them to others in a similar situation. In addition, they run a Bereavement Support Group to support parents and carers who have lost a child. </span></p>
