As October approaches, our thoughts turn to Baby Loss Awareness Week which will be the 9th to the 15th, which is an important month for bereaved families to remember their precious baby, and to encourage conversation and raise awareness about baby loss. It is not only a week for the bereaved parents, but for the wider community to engage. This years theme is wellbeing, families have been grieving in isolation during COVID, and the focus of this week will be on connection, empathy, and love.
We are keen that as many of our amazing supporters will join in our pink and blue for you fundraising campaign.
To do this, you can be involved in various ways:
- Believing in the care we provide, and showing your support through a donation on this page.
- Wear something pink and blue everyday of BLAW , and encourage your friends, families, colleagues to join in too!
Set yourself a fitness challenge - a cycle, a run or a walk everyday (wearing pink and blue!). Join our campaign page, and set up your own fundraiser to encourage others to join in and contribute.
