Our annual memorial service to help parents and families to remember their babies lost during pregnancy or shortly after birth, is taking place on Saturday 15 October.

The annual ‘A Time to Remember’ service gives parents the chance to meet other families and collectively share and remember babies who passed away through stillbirth, miscarriage or neonatal death.

Clare Beesley, bereavement support midwife at the Trust, said: “The loss of a baby can be a devastating, life changing experience for any family to go through and we hope this service can offer a peaceful setting where they can remember their baby together.

“Many families who have attended over the years have found comfort in being able to share their loss with other people who have gone through a similar experience to them. Anyone who has suffered such a loss is welcome to attend.”

‘Time to Remember’ takes place at this time every year to coincide with National Baby Loss Awareness Week, which runs from 9-15 October. The service starts at 2pm on Saturday 15 October at St Paul’s Centre in Belchers Lane, Bordesley Green. If you would like to attend, please contact the bereavement team on 0121 424 2088.
