Taking place every year around the world from 9th–15th October, Baby Loss Awareness Week brings parents, families and friends together to remember and honour babies who are much-loved and deeply missed.
The week also helps us raise awareness and vital funds to support families in our local area who are experiencing the loss of a baby, whether during pregnancy or after birth.
With lots planned throughout the week, we hope you’ll join us in coming together, remembering and showing your support.
September – October 2026
