Welcome
to Surrey Sands
Every day in the UK 17 babies die through stillbirth or neo-natal death, that is 6,500 per year, 10 times more than cot death.
Sands
are a national self help organisation and registered charity,
established to support the parents of babies who have died
during pregnancy or soon after birth. The charity is divided
into a network of local groups of which Surrey Sands
is one. We are all volunteers, but more importantly we are
all bereaved parents ourselves enabling us to offer empathic
support.
The
impact of babyloss is underestimated by anyone who has not
endured the experience. Everyone at Surrey Sands understands
what you are going though and would like to help in any way
we can. In the first instance please contact our helpline.
