MSPs Highlight Baby Loss Retreat at Holyrood Baby Loss Awareness Debate

We were deeply moved to hear MSPs speak about the work of Baby Loss Retreat during the Baby Loss Awareness debate at the Scottish Parliament.

Steven Bonnar MSP, David Linden MSP and Fulton MacGregor MSP all took the time to highlight the charity's work supporting bereaved families across Scotland, and to raise awareness of baby loss in a forum where these important conversations need to be heard.

During the debate, Baby Loss Retreat received a special mention, with MSPs recognising the support we provide to families navigating the devastating journey of baby loss. We were also incredibly proud that Erin's App received a special mention, recognising the work being done to support bereaved families through technology and ensuring that parents have access to help when they need it most.

Having our work acknowledged at Holyrood means a great deal to Julie, Bryan and everyone involved with Baby Loss Retreat. It helps shine a light on the importance of compassionate support for bereaved families and reminds families that they are not alone.

We are grateful to the MSPs who spoke so kindly about our charity and for their commitment to raising awareness of baby loss. These conversations matter, and they help ensure that no family has to face their grief in silence.
