Today marks the start of Baby Loss Awareness Week (BLAW) 2024, BLAW is now in its 22nd year and we are honoured to be part of the Baby Loss Awareness Week Alliance of over 130 charities that work together for this special week which provides families the opportunity to honour the memory of their much-loved and missed babies. This week also provides us with the opportunity to raise awareness of the impact of pregnancy and baby loss, and the importance of good bereavement support. BLAW 2024 will highlight the theme of ‘Together we care’ and Aching Arms will explore how we can look after each other.
We want to remind you to be kind to yourself this week, we know it can be overwhelming. Supporting Arms is here for you if you want to talk to someone.
You can call or text on 07464 508994 or by emailing support@achingarms.co.uk.
During BLAW our dedicated phone line will be open as follows:
Wednesday, 9th October from 4pm - 6pm.
Thursday, 10th October from 5pm - 7pm.
Friday, 11th October from 11am - 1pm.
Saturday, 12th October from 11am - 1pm.
Monday, 14th October from 4pm - 6pm.
If you make a call outside of these times, one of the team will call you back when they are available.
As always the usual email, text support and virtual care calls are still in place. Virtual Care can be booked here: https://calendly.com/clientcare-aching-arms/supporting-arms-virtual-care.
Please remember that you can be involved in BLAW as little or as much as you wish, and it's OK to do what is best for you during this time, including muting the online world and stepping back.
