Sometimes, it can be difficult to know what to say to bereaved parents and families. Often, we don't say anything at all because we are afraid to say the wrong thing. But it is so important to talk 💖💙 Here are some tips on what to say, from @tommys  #BLAW #BabyLoss


Life will never be "normal" for anyone again after the loss of a baby/child, but knowing some of the practical ways to support a colleague after such a loss is so important - see below. #BLAW #Supportbereavedparents @cbukhelp @CotDeathTrust

Some great tips from @cbukhelp on how to support a bereaved employee or colleague at, or on their return to work⬇️ #BabyLossAwarenessWeek

13 babies die in the UK every day. But they aren’t statistics – they are loved and missed. Ask your MP to support #BLAW now and together we can remember the babies lost too soon. fal.cn/3sDna

Remembering is so important to families - knowing that the little one no longer with them is remembered and thought of by people other than them. It's a way of showing love and care to those you know who have experienced that loss. #SayTheirNameAndRememberTogether #BLAW
