| Summary ofthe main achievements ofthe charity during the year |
NHS Hospital Bereavement Units Since the 29'" July 2019when the charity was registered as an official charity and largely due to the generous donations we have received from |
||
| local businesses and members ofthe public, we have been able to |
|||
| donate and support more hospital bereavement units than planned. |
|||
| After initially working with 2 hospitals, we are now supporting 10hospitals |
|||
| in England and have plans to increase this further during 2021. |
|||
| We know from the feedback we get from the specialist bereavement | |||
| Midwives who work on the units and the heartfelt messages we get from |
|||
| families, that the donations and support we are providing to families is |
|||
| valuable and helping to make a difference. |
|||
| We donated: Cuddle Blankets, Care Packages, HITH Keyrings 8 Cuddle |
|||
| Cots. | |||
| Fundraising Events |
|||
| In 2019we held various fundraising events (Dinner &Dance, Golf day |
|||
| etc) which were a success and helped us generate funds for the charity |
|||
| and spread awareness about the work we do and baby loss in general. |
|||
| Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we were unable to hold our main |
|||
| fundraising events in 2020 which has had an impact on our ability to raise |
|||
| funds. | |||
| Personal Support | |||
| Pre COVID-19 we held our monthly support groups and provided support |
|||
| via our website and social media plafforms. The support we provide is |
|||
| more emotional support and provides people with an opportunity to speak |
|||
| to someone who has first-hand experience of baby loss. |
|||
| Wave of Light Service | |||
| In 2019we held our very first 'Wave of Light Service' at our local Parish | |||
| Church and was very well attended. | |||
| The Wave of Light is an opportunity tojoin with other bereaved parents, |
|||
| families, friends, and people around the globe to light a candle and come |
|||
| to remember all babies and children who have sadly died. |
|||
| Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we were unable to hold this service at |
|||
| Church, but did host a virtual event on our social media plafforms. |
