Baby Loss Awareness Week

This week is Baby Loss Awareness Week – a time for thousands of parents, families and friends to unite and commemorate babies’ lives who were too short ✨
As darkness falls each night over the next seven days, pink and blue lights will illuminate Derian House’s hospice building, as we join organisations around the world in remembering and commemorating much-loved and missed babies
The suggestion came from bereaved parents Kirsty and Jonathon Prescott, whose daughter Iris Joy laid to rest at Derian House in 2021
To honour every little life lost, we stand together with thousands of people around the world to light a candle or share an image of a candle at 7pm on Sunday 15th October
This sends a ‘Wave of Light’ across the world, as we remember babies who were too precious for this earth
