The Forget Me Not Support Group is based in Basildon, Essex. We offer support and guidance to families in the South East of England, who have experienced baby loss at any gestation or age. Working with the bereavement teams across the 3 hospitals in the Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation trust, we aim to ease the pain of baby loss and provide training, resources, information and memory boxes. As well as offering help and advice 24/7, the Forget Me Not Support Group meets once a fortnight on a Weds evening in Laindon, Basildon, Essex to give each other help and hope. We are not trained counsellors but we understand each others' losses and want to offer support and guidance to others. We hold a memorial service once a year in October, during babyloss awareness week at Pitsea Crem, all are welcome to join us. πŸ’™β€

Story

Myself, Colin and Rich will ride from London to Brighton, we have chosen a small local charity to support, after myself and Colin lost our baby many years ago, there was no support or help for us, so its really great to now see that a charity has been created, it may be to late for our own support but lets support those in need now its local and very worthwhile charity.

Rich completed this last year for the first time, for me and Colin this will be our first attempt so we are hoping to succeed, training is tough at present with the weather and my hip replacement operation 13 weeks ago, but we will be ready on the day.
