Every year in the UK, thousands of people experience the loss of a baby whether that be in pregnancy, or at/soon after birth.
The loss or the death of their baby, can have far reaching effects. Good care cannot eliminate the pain and grief families experience, but it can help them through this devastating time.
At Kings College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust we have 3 dedicated Bereavement Midwives (2 at Kings College Hospital and 1 at Princess Royal University Hospital) that aim to provide excellence in bereavement care to help families who experience the loss of a baby. We are passionate about continuously reviewing and developing the service to increase the support offered to families at this difficult time and all monies received will go towards improving the service.
