To mark Baby Loss Awareness Week 2025, we were proud to fund special jewellery-making sessions in Meadowhall Shopping Centre on the 9th, 10th and 15th October. The Arts in Health team from Sheffield Teaching Hospitals delivered the sessions and supported the Jessop Bereavement Services team.
The Jessop Bereavement Services team were there in the shopping centre to talk, advise and listen to anyone who wanted their support. Visitors had the opportunity to create a beautiful bracelet to remember a baby special to them. The activity was inspired by Arts in Health's 'Don't Hush' sessions which were recently run to support families affected by baby loss.
Mir Jansen, Arts Coordinator from the Arts in Health team, said, “Our Arts in Health ‘Don’t Hush’ sessions bring parents who have experienced baby loss together with different staff teams who play a vital role in supporting these parents. Doing something creative together makes it easier to share difficult stories.”
