Babyloss Awareness campaign

This year's campaign culminates in International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day on October 15th.

The 2009 campaign runs from 9th to 15th October. If you would like to become involved with Baby Loss Awareness, please visit our Awareness Campaign website or contact the campaign coordinator.

The Baby Loss Awareness campaign group exists to:

§ Promote October 15th as National Baby Loss Awareness Day* within the UK

§ Promote the annual Global Wave of Light* events and services where parents can acknowledge their losses

§ Promote awareness and understanding of the impact of pregnancy and baby loss among health and social care workers and the community at large.

*Baby Loss Awareness Day, including the "Wave of Light" events and services, are devised as a result of collaboration involving the support organisations operating in the area of pregnancy and baby loss. The work of each organisation is promoted without preference at all times.

To find out more, visit the campaign Events pages. Throughout the year, you can light a virtual candle for your baby by clicking here: Light a Candle

Welcome to Babyloss

The Babyloss website provides information and support online for anyone affected by the death of a baby during pregnancy, at birth, or shortly afterwards.

We hold an annual Awareness Campaign each October, joining forces with four national charities to plan remembrance events, distribute ribbon pins, and to raise awareness of pregnancy loss and infant loss amongst the general public and within the health sector.

News
Baby Loss Awareness Week 2009
Awareness Week is an opportunity for parents to acknowledge the precious life of their baby.

This year's campaign runs from 9th to 15th October. Several events are being held across the UK, to acknowledge and commemorate brief lives, and to raise awareness of pregnancy loss and infant loss amongst the general public and in the health sector.

This year's events include remembrance services, and the Wave of Light candle-lighting movement, where we link up with bereaved parents and support organisations across the world at 7pm local time on October 15th. Ribbon pins will again be

As in previous years, the campaign will run as a collaboration between Babyloss, The Miscarriage Association, Antenatal Results and Choices (ARC), The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust, and the Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Society (Sands).

Journalists, midwives, health and social care workers can download Media and Information Packs from our Awareness Week resources site. Fundraising ideas and support are also available for anyone wishing to help these worthwhile organisations to continue their research into the causes of infant loss and their care of bereaved parents.

For more information, please visit the Events page on the awareness campaign site, or contact our campaign coordinator.
New Babyloss library pages: making it easy to find the books you need
We've redesigned the library pages to make them easier for you to find more sources of support, comfort and information. In partnership with Amazon, the new section highlights selections for parents, children, and recommendations from Babyloss members.

You can get to the library pages from the Information section.
Wear a ribbon pin to support Baby Loss Awareness
Wear a Baby Loss Awareness ribbon pin as a symbol of remembrance to show your support for bereaved parents and help the organisations that support them. Our ribbon pins are handmade by bereaved parents, their families and friends. You can order your ribbon pins online or apply by post to

Baby Loss Awareness, PO Box 13703, Musselburgh EH21 6WX

We suggest a minimum donation of £1 for each ribbon. Please make your cheque or postal order payable to Baby Loss Awareness.

Income generated through donations received for our Ribbon Pins will be allocated first to cover the costs incurred in promoting the Baby Loss Awareness campaign and thereafter any surplus will be distributed equally between the participating organisations. To read more about the organisations, see our charities page.

About us

What we do

Stockport Empowering Parents Empowering Communities (EPEC) is a popular parenting programme delivered for parents, and by parents, in their own communities.

We offer a mixture of workshops and courses, virtual and face to face, helping parents to learn practical communication skills essential for navigating everyday challenges and nurturing confident, happy and cooperative children.

Our courses cover a range of topics including:

understanding children's emotions

fostering quality time through play

managing behaviour effectively

discipline strategies

enhancing listening and communication skills

coping with parental stress

We offer a variety of specialised courses tailored to different stages of parenting and family dynamics, including:

Baby and us: a course designed to give your baby the best start in life. It'll help support you to understand your babys cues, cope with challenges and manage parental stress

Being a parent: for parents and carers of children aged 2 to 11 years

Living with teenagers: for parents and carers of adolescents aged 11 to 16 years

Being a parent (autism): specifically designed for parents and carers of children aged 2 to 11 years diagnosed with autism or on the pathway

Being a parent together: a course designed for couples and co-parents to undertake jointly

Courses run during term-time across Stockport, spanning 8 to 10 weeks with sessions lasting 2 to 2.5 hours each, typically running as morning sessions.

In addition, parents have the opportunity to train to become EPEC Parent Group Leaders, empowering them to co-facilitate courses throughout Stockport. This involves a comprehensive training delivered over 10 weeks, with sessions conducted face-to-face one day a week, term time only. We offer support such as reimbursement for travel expenses, provision of lunch and refreshments during training, and assistance with childcare arrangements as needed (to be arranged in advance).

Upon successful completion of the training, Parent Group Leaders (PGLs) join our EPEC volunteer hub. PGLs benefit from continuous professional development opportunities provided by Stockport Council and partner organisations, along with participation in social gatherings and ongoing support including travel assistance, refreshments, and childcare provisions to facilitate EPEC courses across Stockport.

To register for a course, or for more information, call or email us.

We deliver the Incredible Years programme for parents. This is a 14 week course which promotes children's emotional, social and academic competence, and prevents, reduces and treats behavioural and emotional problems in young children.

The 10 week From Timid to Tiger course supports parents to understand children's anxious behaviours and how to help develop confidence and achieve a reduction in worrying behaviours and thoughts in their child.

An online self directed study course for parents is available called Understanding your Child. This flexible programme is comprised of 11 modules covering for example: relationships, child development, attachment, behaviours, communication and understanding.

Our parents tell us that our courses are fun, informative and most of all they work!
WORKSHOPS/SEMINARS
We offer a 5 hour Sleep workshop for parents where a behavioural cause has been identified for the disruption, and a shorter 2 hour virtual Sleep seminar. These focus on improving sleep hygiene and creating achievable bedtime routines.
INDIVIDUAL CONSULTATIONS
For parents where a group intervention is not suitable an appointment can be offered with a practitioner to discuss their concerns in detail. This is a personalised short focused intervention involving a detailed assessment in order to understand your concerns. We work with you to create a plan of support that is suitable for you and your family. A review appointment is booked at the end of the session.

Examples of types of issues parents may wish to discuss include: Sleep disturbance, attachment worries, difficulties managing emotions (if group work not suitable), or more complex feeding, toileting and behavioural issues.

Group work and individual appointments are usually provided from a variety of community venues across Stockport such as Start Well Hubs and Satellites, however, due to the impact of Covid all our services are currently being delivered virtually or via telephone consultations

Nick, 67, on using the Space for Resilience Programme

While my wife was ill my relationship with my daughter wasn't great, we often disagreed about how best to care for her. After she died, I didn't want to keep coasting through life as I was. My main goal for the resilience program was to learn how to cope better with my problems, rather than simply turning a blind eye to them.

Ayaz

Ayaz 21, on using the Space for Sleep program

I would often cancel plans to see friends from college because I just couldn't find the energy to get out the house. It wasn't until I had been filling out the sleep diary for a few weeks that I realised how little I was actually sleeping. The program showed me how making small changes could have a big impact on the quality of my sleep.

Jo

Jo, 61, on using the Space from Stress Program

I went to see my physician for a check-up. He told me that my blood pressure was too high. I needed to find a better way to deal with the stress in my life. A therapist also worked in the clinic and spoke to me about SilverCloud. I really didn't see how it could help me. I didn't go back for a while but then my stress levels got worse and I decided to give it another shot.

Corinne, on using the Supporting an Anxious Child programme for her daughter Maya

When I first clicked on the My Child's Anxiety tool, I decided to skip over it. The idea of describing Maya's various anxieties and the circumstances around them felt overwhelming. I think I was worried that writing them out would make them more real. And then I would have to face up to how my difficult relationship with Maya's dad might have affected her. I eventually decided to go back and give the tool a try. I'm glad I did. I think I surprised myself. Getting it all out of my head and onto the page was actually a relief. Having everything written out made me feel more in control of it.

Kate, on using the Supporting an Anxious Teen programme for her daughter Evie

I don't know if she is picked on or bullied but I know Evie hates going to school. She sometimes complains of a pain in her stomach or chest, which I thought was an excuse to get out of going to school. Reading about the physical sensations that anxiety can cause, and using the body map, I realised that she does genuinely seem to get a sore stomach when she is stressed or worried. I feel so bad that it took us so long to realise this. We have started to use the body map regularly, as a way of helping her (and us) to understand how her worries are affecting her.
