Events to commemorate Baby Loss Awareness week

Wed, 07 Oct 2020


Baby Loss Awareness week will be marked on the Island from this Friday.

The week is part of the UK awareness campaign held every year at this time across the country. This year will highlight the isolation many people experience after pregnancy and the sad loss of a much-wanted baby. 

There will be information displays at Noble’s Hospital and in the Strand Shopping Centre. 

A tree of remembrance will be unveiled at the bereavement room of the Jane Crookall Maternity Unit at Noble’s Hospital at 2pm on Thursday 15 October, with names added later of the babies that were ‘born asleep’.  

A Wave of Light ceremony will be held at 7pm on Thursday 15 October on Douglas Promenade organised by local charity Little Piece of Hope.

There will also be a service of remembrance on Monday 28 December 2020 at St Thomas’ Church.
