June is the Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Charity AKA Sands Awareness Month.
The objective this June is to raise awareness of neonatal deaths and stillbirths, as well as to highlight the support available.
Losing a baby can be an isolating, devastating, and life-changing experience. More recognition and understanding of just how traumatic the loss of a baby is for the parents and their wider family is needed. If you’re struggling with baby loss, do seek support from Sands. They offer a helpline, mobile app, an online community, and a UK-wide network of around 100 regional support groups – see sands.org.uk for more details.
To anyone who’s reading this that has lost a baby, at whatever stage, we’re sending you love.
