The Baby Loss Series

These beautiful animations, with voices from the Stillbirth Stories audio archive of testimonies from bereaved parents, break the silence on all aspects of baby loss. Through this series, we want to raise awareness of the prevalence of baby loss, and support families affected so they feel less alone. #TogetherForChange #BreakingTheSilence
