Welcome to Ayrshire
Baby Loss Support

The sharing of hurt, is the beginning of healing.

A very warm welcome to the Ayrshire Baby Loss Support site, if at any time you have any questions or would like to get in touch for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact us, it's what we are here for, and please remember we are all bereaved parents who have an understanding of how you feel x

🌟 Awareness & Fundraising Coordinator

We are particularly seeking someone to take on the role of Awareness & Fundraising Coordinator. This role involves:

Supporting the wonderful individuals who fundraise on our behalf
Overseeing and coordinating volunteers at awareness and fundraising events
Helping us continue to grow our reach within the community

🤝 Ordinary Member

We are also looking for an Ordinary Member to join the Committee. This role involves:

Supporting fellow Committee members
Assisting with the smooth running of the group
Contributing ideas and helping at events when possible

Both roles are voluntary positions and do require commitment and time. However, they are also incredibly rewarding opportunities to give back and help us continue supporting families through baby loss. If either of these roles feels right for you, please get in touch, we would be delighted to hear from you.

ABLS Duck Race!

We are currently in the process of organising our much loved Duck Race, more details will be issued in due course.

Seed Packs & Memory Boxes

We know how difficult it can be when you lose your baby, but for those who have early miscarriages, sometimes this means you don't even have contact with the hospital, and have no idea what help is out there. We have now launched our seed pack's page, with details of how to order your seed packs and where memory boxes are available as well. Please visit our Seed Packs page here for more details.

Our Services

Support Meetings

We hold regular in-person support meetings for anyone affected by baby loss. These are a safe place to share your grief and receive support from our trained Befrienders and other bereaved parents and families.

Remembrance Services

We offer a number of services around remembering your baby, including our memorial trees, wildflower seed packs, online memorial page, book of remembrance, and a beautiful card on the birthday of your baby.

Events

We try to hold different events through the year, such as our Memorial Walk, during BLAW (Baby Loss Awarensess Week) and our annual Christmas Bauble Memorial Service, along with attending local gala and fundays to raise awareness of baby loss and ABLS.

Talking About Loss

This space is dedicated to how it feels to suffer a loss, whether that be from a bereaved parents point of view, a family member, or a professional, we welcome all contributions. If you would like something published please get in touch.
