Baby loss support

Early day motion 1034, tabled 19 October 2020 by Jim Shannon (DUP). Signed by 17 members.

That this House notes the end of baby loss awareness week UK; highlights that for so many the pain continues on; underlines the statistic that 1 in 4 suffering from loss does not include the wider pain and grief of loved ones and family; encourages women and partners to mourn as they need to and understands that their loss matters and is worthy of voicing and remembering; and further underlines that Government must enhance counselling services and other help available to families devastated by the loss of their little child and the promise of a future that will not happen.

Signatures by party: DUP 6, Labour 4, Scottish National Party 4, Conservative 2, Labour/Co-operative 1.
