Baby Loss Awareness Week runs October 9-15th annually, and is recognised across the world. It is a time to remember all the babies and young children who are no longer with us, and to recognise the families who carry their love and their memories every day.

It is a crucial time to bring those who have not experienced baby loss into the conversation, to draw attention to the importance of bereavement services that provide essential care to families navigating their grief, and to spark collective action.

This year Held In Our Hearts is focussing on highlighting the Hidden Milestones of Baby Loss.

We know that, the loss of a baby or child is something you carry with you forever, and the milestones that matter are not just anniversaries, there a lots of moments where grief is hidden and carried silently by bereaved parents in the days, months and years that follow the pregnancy, baby and infant loss.
