BEARS OF HOPE Family & Friends Online Support Group is for the family and friends of parents who have experienced the loss of their baby during Pregnancy, Birth or Infancy.

Family & Friends grieve too and often do not know what to say or how to better support parents who have experienced such tragedy. We hope this group will enable you to find understanding, comfort, knowledge and strength as you work through your emotions. Respecting others views and being non-judgemental of any gestational loss is paramount to the esteem of this support group.

The Bears Of Hope program registered as a not-for-profit organisation in NSW (Australia) in 2006. We donate traditional teddy bears throughout NSW and ACT Hospitals to parents when they experience the loss of their baby, to provide comfort knowing they are not alone right from the beginning and to offer significant ongoing support to heal their broken hearts. Each bear is lovingly donated to honour another little soul taken too soon. Please visit our website www.bearsofhope.org.au for more information.
