Berkshire Babyloss Support Group
Providing a supportive place for parents, and families who have experienced the loss of a baby.
Group Meets from 8pm on the last Monday of month at St Nicolas Church Hall, Sutcliffe Avenue, Earley. (Through the door at left side of the church hall, follow the signs)
We welcome anyone who has been affected by the loss of a baby before, during or shortly after birth.
Mission Statement: To provide a place for bereaved parents, their families and friends who have experienced the loss of a baby during pregnancy or at birth.
The group is led by a trained miscarriage counsellor who has experience in walking alongside those bereaved through baby loss.
The support group is a place where we hope attendees will feel comfortable and among friends, a place where they feel able to share their experiences, worries, fears and problems. Attendees will be going through a range of feelings: deep sadness, anger, disbelief, shock, bitterness, guilt etc. These are all different stages of grieving, and are perfectly natural after the loss of a baby at whatever stage.
All of those in the group will have experienced either one or more losses and will therefore understand how each other feels. Sometimes just by talking or listening, it's a great relief to discover that other people feel the same way and that you are not alone.
We welcome attendees to come to the group as often as they need, but if someone feels they need a break, that's fine too. It is understood that some months will be better than others, and if an attendee haven't been for some time, the group will only be too glad to see them again.
Everything shared at the support group will be held in confidence by all attendees at the group; this will be reminded at the start of each meeting.
