Providing support
• We have a staffed helpline Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.. Helpline staff can offer support by telephone, letter or e-mail.
• If you or your partner have had a miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy or molar pregnancy and would like to talk to someone else who has had this experience, we can put you in touch with a support volunteer in or near your area.
• We can give you details of your nearest support group, where you can meet others who have experienced pregnancy loss.
Giving information
• Helpline staff can often provide general information about pregnancy loss, although they do not give medical advice or opinions.
• We publish leaflets and fact-sheets about the facts and feelings of pregnancy loss, some in languages other than English and on audiotape.
• We have commissioned research into the causes of miscarriage, and support and encourage further research into the causes, management and prevention of pregnancy loss.
Working for change
• We encourage good practice in the way miscarriage and ectopic and molar pregnancy are managed in hospitals and in the community and run study days for health professionals.
• We work with the media to correct myths and misinformation and to promote public awareness of the significance of pregnancy loss.
• We collaborate with other charities to promote national Babyloss Awareness Week
