After pregnancy loss or the death of baby, bereaved parents and other family members find themselves on a new path they never expected to be on. We know this path is not a straight line and that everyone’s journey is unique. Together with anyone affected by loss, we want to explore the steps along that journey, and how they are different for everyone. Some steps along the journey can feel harder than others, but there is always a hand to support anyone when they feel unsteady.
We want to reassure anyone who finds themselves on this journey, whether recently bereaved or longer ago, that there is a community that exists to help with whatever is needed, whether that is advice, support or simply someone to listen and walk by their side.
You can engage with Baby Loss Awareness Week by following the hashtag #BLAW2022 on social media and get involved. Throughout the week we will be sharing stories, experiences and thoughts around baby loss, the journey of grief and how everybody’s experience is different. and on the final day is the Wave of Light. You are all invited to light a candle in memory of a little one on Saturday 15thOctober at 7pm.
TimeNorfolk Events During Baby Loss Awareness Week
Doorway of Hope Service
Norwich Cathedral 9thOctober 6pm
You are invited to join us at Norwich Cathedral for a service of remembrance for those who have lost a baby, no matter how long ago. Whether through miscarriage, termination, stillbirth, pregnancy loss of any kind or in the early months of life.
Many people who experience pregnancy loss feel they didn’t get the chance to say goodbye, the Doorway of Hope service can enable some of us to do this.
During the service there will be an opportunity to light a candle and write in the TimeNorfolk book of remembrance.
Norwich Cathedral 9thOctober at 6pm.
