If you have experienced pregnancy loss, stillbirth or neonatal death, we are so sorry this has happened to you. We understand this is a difficult time and provide support for families.

Bereavement Midwife We have a bereavement lead midwife and bereavement team who provide support for families whilst in the Royal United Hospital, Bath.

The Butterflies Support group is available to anyone effected by baby loss and there is no need to book.

It's held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month (no group in August) 9:30-11am at the All Saints Centre, Weston in the Courtyard (postcode for parking: BA1 4ER). Contact the bereavement lead midwife for more information.

There are also some charitable organisations which offer a range of support for families. Please contact us if you have any questions.
