Advocacy

Positive change doesn’t happen unless we make it happen - that’s why Daphne & Friends are committed to raising our voices to make sure there is lasting and beneficial change in society for bereaved families.

Baby Loss Awareness Week

We are busy getting ready for Baby Loss Awareness Week 2025, where we will be hosting lots of special events, raising awareness and remembering our babies and children. The beautiful Oh Squirrel ribbon display will be back in the St Mary’s Churchyard, and we would love to add your baby or child’s name.

Speaking At Waltham Forest Council

It was an honour to be invited to speak at the Waltham Forest Full Committee Meeting in October 2024 as part of Baby Loss Awareness Week. I spoke about the importance of talking about baby loss, making connections and how things need to change to address the inequality in maternity care.
