Parent wellbeing boxes

The idea for our Wellbeing Boxes came to Hannah, as she reflected on our experiences, after we lost both Rose and Daisy.

Both times, we received a wealth of information and advice, from many different sources. While all of it was welcomed, much of what was said in one leaflet was echoed in another, and more that could have been said, wasn’t even touched on.

After collaborating with other parents, who had lost their babies, Hannah knew for sure, a cohesive and more mindful approach, to giving much of that crucial information and advice, was needed.

Each Wellbeing Box contains:

• A small pack of information and advice leaflets
• A baby’s details book for recording precious moments
• A mindfulness journal with calming activities and exercises.
• Three crochet hearts, one for each parent and one for their baby
• Two small candles
• And for babies born before 24 weeks, we include a certificate of birth

The boxes are given to parents by the hospital teams, shortly after the loss of their baby.

A donation of £25 will provide a box to bereaved parents, when they may need it the most.
