Story

Do you, your friends and family want to support a fun, unique and worthwhile challenge? Why not take part in our It Takes 2 paired yoga challenge and support someone in their grief by donating £10 today.

You cant prevent baby loss but you CAN prevent families feeling alone in their grief after their baby dies.

The death of a baby is an incomprehensible loss that only those who have lived through will truly understand. The unimaginable has happened and it can leave bereaved families feeling alone and isolated in their grief.

In life we will all sadly encounter grief at some point and we will all have a need for that person in our life to share and journey with us in our pain and in our joy. For many of us that is friends and family but with baby loss the grief is so painfully overwhelming and isolating that, for some, our counselling services are often that person to those in such desperate need. In 2021 we provided 1200 counselling sessions and we anticipate the need in 2022 to be even greater.

Do you, your friends and family want to support a fun, unique and worthwhile challenge? Why not take part in our It Takes 2 paired yoga challenge.

Yoga is often perceived as an individual exercise and yet there are so many benefits to paired yoga.

Please consider a suggested donation of £10 which can help provide specialist baby loss counselling for bereaved parents.

It takes 2 to complete so pick a child, friend, partner or colleague and get practicing (the partner can vary with each pose).

Every other day in April we will post a paired yoga pose.

Share a selfie of each pose #ittakes2 and tag Held in Our Hearts to be in with the chance of winning a prize.

Tag those who have been by your side and encourage them to donate and join in the challenge.

It takes 2, it takes you!
