June is Sands Awareness Month 💛 A time to raise awareness of stillbirth and neonatal death, and the lasting impact of losing a baby before, during or shortly after birth.
For a long time, baby loss has been difficult to talk about. Many people still don’t realise how common it is, or how deeply it affects families. While progress has been made in breaking the silence, there is still more to do.
This month gives a voice to those who have experienced loss, and reminds us that over 100 babies die every week in June and all year round🕯️
