Held annually, the week is a “special opportunity to mark the lives of babies lost in pregnancy or soon after birth”, according to the Miscarriage Association.

The Association works alongside 60 other charities to support people who have lost a baby and campaign for improvements in bereavement care, research and prevention.

This year’s campaign focus is around improving access to mental health support for people following pregnancy or baby loss.

Supporters wear blue and pink ribbons to mark the week, and in the past few years, dozens of public buildings have also got behind the cause by embracing the colours.
