The Mariposa Trust Report of the Trustees 2019/2020 COVID-19: Global Pandemic In March of 2020, the UK and most of the world suffered the full effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. This unknown disease caused the lockdown of most countries Including the UK, and as such the shutting down of the UK economy. During the lockdown and subsequent restrirtlons, the work of the charity continued unabated. and the charity saw an increase in people requiring support. However, this was also met with a reduction in the time that volunteers had available to assist the charity, las many were having to home school children, provide care for family members, volunteer for covid-related initiatives and more,) which increased the workload of the core team at the charity. The charity saw the following increases in the demand for support: People experiencing baby loss in isolation, whether at home, with a lack of any support around them, or whether in hospital, with no ability to have any support with them. This led to significant increases in trauma, mental health issues, PTSD and more. People who had experienced historic baby loss engaging with their grief. The pandemic provided people with time to process previous grief and trauma, which people are normally too busy to do. With people having no work, or a reduced ability to work, this meant that people suddenly started to process previous losses. and with a wave of global grief due to the pandemic, this triggered unprocessed grief in many people. People needing sUPPOrt, due to the inability of the NHS to provide ongoing assistance due to medical staff being reassigned due to Covid. The trustees were aware in February 2020thatthere were increasingconcerns over Covid, and as such made a decision to postpone its flagship fundraising event, the Mariposa Ball from March 2020 to September 2020. This decision was not taken lightly, as it would push most of the yearly fundraising efforts to the end of the 201912020 year, but for public safety, as well as the safety of the volunteers. it was essential. With no easing of restrictions in the summer of 2020, the trustees had to make the decision to postpone the ball until 2021, understanding the reduction in income that would incur. In late 2019, the charity secured funding to purchase entries at % marathons races around the UK. Having secured similar funding in previous years where the charity had seen on average a 400% return on this funding, the charity decided to diversify from places at one race, to places at five races, and increase from 40 places to 62 places. In early 2020 the charity officially launched 'Race For Love,, a new sports focused fundraising project, only to have all of the races postponed from 2020 until 2021 due to the pandemic, which once again had a major impart on yearly income. The charity has always seen the majority of Its yearly income raised via fundraising projects and events. as well as by singular individual or corporate donations. With the rise of the pandemic in early 2020, Iduring the second quarter of the charities financial year,) nearly all of the normal fundraising projerts and events were cancelled, and donations reduced, as people around the UK were furloughed or laid off, and companies shut down. As such the trustees were quickly aware that the charities income would be si8nificantly reduced for the 201912020 financial year. and as such reduttions in expenditure would need to be made, and reserves would have to be used to support the charity during this unprecedented period of time. The trustees made the necessary decisions to reduce costs and put processes in place to ensure the future of the charity was secured, and that the work of the charity could continue.
The Mariposa Trust Report of the Trustees 201912020 Objects The objects of the charity are the protection and preservation of good health of parents and their families affected by gestational Ioss, 5tillbirth or death of a baby, in partlcular but not exclusively by the holding of commemorative services and the provision of a variety of support services including a national telephone helpline, befriending groups, counselling and therapy. UK Issue: Baby loss has been an issue for thousands of years, however over recent years, earlier pregnancy testing has led to people flnding out from as early as 4-weeks that they are pregnant. This, however, means that they are also then aware from an earlier stage if they suffer a loss. In the U K. miscarriage continues to affett around l-in-4 pregnancies or around 250,000 each year, with around 3,800 Stillbirths, and a similar number of Neonatal and Early Years losses. Even though there have been reductions, the UK continues to fall well short of many Western Developed nations in levels of Stillbirths. International= Baby loss is a global issue with an estimated 30 million miscarriages, 2.6 million stillbirths ILancet Report 20161 and 5.495 million neonatal and early year's losses IWHO and other sourcesl. The aims of the trust are fulfilled in 4 main ways: Saying Goodbye Services: The SG Services were the first national Set of remembrance services for people who have suffered baby Ioss and were launched by the charity in 2012. Held at Cathedrals, Minsters and Abbey's across the UK and internationally, the services are open to all people regardless of faith or no faith and look to celebrate, acknowledge and remember the lives unlived or cut short. During 2019-2020 the charity had over 20 services planned around the UK, but due to Covid the charity had to postpone significant number of these. It was able to hold 3 services in November of 2019, and following the easing of restrictions in the summer of 2020, it was able to hold 3 services in September 2020 and 3 in October 2020. To fill the substantial need for these events, the ch3rity diversified and produced high-profile online events, which will be highlighted later. Support: The Saying Goodbye sUPPOrt service, now provides support to tens of thousands of people every week, via befrienders, social media Ilnstagram/TwitterlFacebook/Pinterestl forums, counsellors and more. Saying Goodbye primarily supports people who have suffered baby loss at any stage of pregnancy, at birth or during infancy. The charity currently does not have the resources to provide a natlonal helpline, however it currently provides 'Telephone Support, to people who request it- however, this service was temporarily reduced during the Covid lockdowns in 2020 due to reduced staffing.
The Mariposa Trust Report of the Trustees 201912020 Additional Support: The trust also has five additional support divisions. 'GrowingYou' is a specialist division working with people who are pregnant following losing a baby, as the trauma of loss can cause significant fear for people. 'Waiting for you, supports people through the adoption process. 'Holding Hope, supports parents (many of whom have gone through baby lossl through fertility treatment. 'Love in Every Tearf supports people who are supporting others through loss 'So Cherished, supports parents who have received a terminal dlagnosis over their baby Resources and Training: The charity saw the need for better resources to be used within hospitals and the wider medical cornmunity, and as such produced the 'Baby Loss and You, leaflet. This leaflet is now used in over 60% of NHS trusts and hospltals, and is provided free of charge by the charity. In addition, the charity has access to other resources that it is able to provide. Furthermore, the charity also provides training sessions with midwifery teams, bereavement rnidwives and other medical professionals, to improve patient care, support and experience. Campaigning: Saying Goodbye works with various agencies including NHS England and others to encourage best practice, and to artively campaign for improvements in pre and post loss care. In May 2016, the charity was awarded 'Stakeholder' status with the Department of Health and is actively working with this department, as well as members of Parliament and members of the House of Lords, to bring about improvements in care. Though the standard of care has seen improvements, such as the introduction of bereavement suites in some hospitals, there are still vast chasms of inequality in the standard of care, and the charity is committed to helping bring about change. In July 2017, the charity saw the 'National Loss Certificate, Bill introduced into the House of Lords, which it has campaigned for with the help of Baroness Benjamin. This looks to see a voluntary certificate introduced allowing babies10st before 24-weeks gestation, the chance to be formally recognised and registered. Political hold-ups due to Brexit and then the Covid-19 pandemic have meant this ha5 progressed slower than hoped. In February 2018 the Secretary of State for Health (The Rt Hon Jeremy Huntl announced the first National Review into baby loss pre-24-weeks gestation, including looking at the support systems in place for parents, certification and more. Zoe Clark-coates, the trustee and director of the Mariposa Trust was appointed bv the DOH and No 10 to co-chair the review which is still underway.
The Mariposa Trust Report of the Trustees 201912020 The issue of loss: Baby loss has always been a taboo subject with a stigma often attached to people that suffer it, meaning that it is often never addressed or openly discussed. The 'Don't tell anyone until you are 12-weeks' message means that people suffer in silence, not wanting to share their pain. Furthermore, as friends and family often struggle knowing what to say about someone's loss, they will often choose to not say anything and hope that the person gets over it, which again makes the person going through the loss feel unable to share or ask for help and support. Grief over baby loss can be extrerne and must be dealt with for people to move forward positively with their lives, as all too often they can become caught in a cycle of grief. The outworking of unresolved grief can often lead to physical, emotional and mental illness, which can direttly impair and hinder a person's life. This can often have implications and adverse effects on relationships, employment and many other areas of life. The 'need' to have an avenue for acknowledging and remembering a 1055 is key to working through and overcoming grief, which is why the services and support provided by the charity are vital. Performance against Objects and Future Plan5 In the year November 2019 to October 2020, the charity ran 9 of the expected 20'Saying Goodbye, services due to the pandemic. These included Services at Canterbury Cathedral, Ely Cathedral, St Mary's Cathedral in Edinburgh, and more. The charity does not count the number of attendees at any service, as the foundation of its work is to help each individual who has suffered loss or been affected by the loss of a child. As part of the restrictions imp05ed, the charity had to restrict the number of people at each 2020 service, as well as impose strict measures to ensure the safety and health of all attendees, as well as the charity staff and volunteers and venue staff at each event. A comprehensive set of risk assessments were undertaken, and appropriate PPE purchased and procedures put in place to ensure full compliance with regulations. Due to the pandomic, and the postponement of many services, the charity decided to implement a series of online services of remembrance Ivirtual gatherings). In April 2020, the charity launched 'Saying Goodbye online,, which saw the charity produce a fortnightly online service, filled with music, poetry, atts of remembrance and more. The charity utilised its team of volunteers, expert singers and musicians to produce content from their homes and using equipmentthe charity owned Idueto lottery funding in previous years), produced in-house a set of high quality 40-minute services, that were then live streamed on Facebook, YouTube and via the charity's own website online.sayinggoodbye.org. There was significant time investrnent into this project, but with very little financial outlay, and the success has been undeniable with online services that were watched by people around the world with over 33,000 households joining one week, and regularaudiences of 10,000- 20,000 households. These events continued throughout 2020, and the trustees have chosen to continue them throughout 2021 and beyond. Overthe 201912020 period, the charity has continued to gain media coverage and hasfeatured in numerous newspaper and magazine articles across the UK. In addition to the print media coverage, there has been TV exposure with appearances on ITV'S Lorraine and other show5, and around 20 other radio and TV interviews for station5 including Global Radio (Heart.

The charity has pioneered the use of social media and has harnessed it 3s a key way of reaching people and providing support globally. Facebook continues to have the largest reach and saw significant growth from over 115,000 followers at the start of November 2019 to over 125,000 followers at the end of October 2020.

Many personal fundraising challenges undertaken by people were also scrapped, and planned fundr3ising days were also cancelled. With careful plannin& the trustees were able to make adjustrnent5 to expenditure. and use reserves to help ensure the charity was able to continue the provision of services and support.
