Your donation will help us to provide one-to-one support for families and women after they have received the worst news a parent can hear. You will provide a safe comfortable space for regular support groups to take place and allow parents to share their grief. You will provide tools and help for memorialising and remembering lost babies. And you will provide training for our volunteers who have all been through this loss themselves.
We are a group of women and men who have all gone through the heartbreaking experience of receiving a difficult diagnosis during pregnancy. We quickly realised there was no specific support groups for people like us in Ireland. Our feelings of loss were compounded by feelings of isolation during this time. For those of us who did find others who had gone through a similar experience, peer support was a much needed lifeline. We felt such huge relief at just being able to talk openly about our experiences with people who had been there themselves, and understood the despair we all felt. Leanbh Mo Chroi aims to to encourage healing by offering support and a safe space to grieve. We are all bereaved parents who wish to help give support and encouragement to others who now face a similar loss.
