Wednesday 14 January 2015

Over the last week I have had two families I personally know who have gone through the trauma of losing their baby.

This is two more families that are starting their journey through grief.

I wonder if either of them will be able to access any bereavement support appropriate for them. 

They are both from different areas of the UK, and it would be interesting to find out if the support they receive is any different.

The one thing I do know is that this again highlights the need for increases in the provisions of bereavement support services across England.

It makes me feel so sad to think that there are now two more families that could be missing out on that vital care and support they so need over the next few weeks and months.

I find it scary to think that I have had 2 families within just my circle of friends that have gone through this devastating experience.

Imagine how many families there are then across the UK that have gone through the same situation over the last seven days.

The lack of support for families has to change and it has to change soon. 

There are already too many families out there that have struggled or are struggling to get through their loss without any help.

We are determined that 2015 is going to be a year of change within the bereavement services and the NHS.

We will fight and petition and pester the relevant people to get a change .

Our Change.org petition continues and we are still getting more signatures. 

We will continue with this campaign until we see a change.

We will continue to communicate with both local and national NHS services to discuss improvements that NEED to be made.

We will not give up this fight. 
There are too many families out there, many of which have contacted us, that need and deserve this support.
