Worcestershire Maternity Bereavement Suite · 30 January 2017

We support the patients, staff and services of Worcestershire's acute hospitals by providing additional extras over the core NHS provision that improve the experience for all. From artwork to the latest medical equipment our aim is to make the experience that bit more comfortable for all.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit  our JustGiving page.

We have launched an appeal to raise £60,000 for a Bereavement Suite in the maternity unit at Worcestershire Royal Hospital. 

The suite will provide a private space for parents who have experienced the tragedy of a stillbirth or the loss of their baby post-birth, where they can begin to grieve the loss of their baby. 

It will be an addition to the existing bereavement facility - the Fay Turner Suite - which will also benefit from a refurbishment. 

The money will go towards converting an existing room in the maternity department into a suitable space which will include a kitchen area and access into the memorial garden, as well as funding fixtures and furnishings for the space. 

Around 95 families a year could benefit from access to our bereavement suite. We know from the conversations we have with parents how important these facilities are - a space for mothers, partners and family to go, away from the noise and bustle of the nearby maternity ward.
