Find support or discover how to support others this Baby Loss Awareness Week
We’re going to share how you can receive support through your own bereavement, and also how others can support those who may be navigating life after baby loss.
You can expect stories from people who have experienced baby loss, relevant resources, podcast and book recommendations, and ways to remember your baby.
Keep an eye on our social media, and feel free to share posts that resonate with you. This way, we can keep grieving families supported, together.
How we can support you
When a baby or young child dies, the ripples are far-reaching. The heartbreak is felt not only by parents, but by the whole family, their friendship circles and the professionals who cared for the little one.
If you feel like content about baby loss may be challenging for you during this week, we’re here to help if you need support. Our bereavement support helpline is open to everyone that may be affected by the bereavement of a little one, whether you held them in your arms or supported the family from afar.
Call us on 0808 802 6868. Opening times:
- Monday – Friday: 10:00am to 2:00pm
- Weekends and public holidays: 6:00pm to 10:00pm
Alternatively, you can email [email protected].
If you’d rather receive support in a different way, we also offer family days out, the Care of Next Infant programme, and a د فیسبوک ملاتړ ګروپ.

Most people take a whole journey through the grief process. It’s not a thing you get over quickly. You might move on practically, and continue your day-to-day life, but the grief is always with you. My family and friends tried their best to help but the physical and mental pain is just all-consuming. It felt that unless someone had experienced their child die themselves, they wouldn’t understand.

I find that people often don’t realise that aunts, uncles, cousins all grieve too. People would say, ‘Tell Steph how sorry we were to hear about Jessie.’ I really appreciated the people who said, ‘I’m sorry for your loss’, too.

I wish more people knew that seeking bereavement support is a helpful thing to do. You don't have to suffer alone and bottle it up. Nowadays there’s a big conversation surrounding men’s mental health and how men tend to bottle up their emotions. Baby loss is so visceral. Too many people wait until they are on the brink of disaster to take the first step to seek support.

Show your support by holding a Little Stars Walk
You choose the location, the distance, and any date during 9-15 October. You might like to choose to host one in a place that’s special to you. And you might choose a distance that’s meaningful, such as a kilometre for each month of your baby’s life. You can make it your own and do whatever feels right for you.
Whether you’re personally affected or want to be an ally to those who have experienced infant loss, we’re coming together as a community that cares for each other. By walking in memory of a baby or child, you’ll be creating a lasting impact in their name, by helping other families.
When you sign up to hold a Little Stars Walk you’ll receive an LED candle lantern bag to shine brightly in memory of your baby.
Plus when you raise £100 you will be invited to join our Sky Full of Love. If you raise £300 or more from your walk, you’ll receive a personalised star decoration, with either your or your loved one’s name on, to say thank you.
