NSW Support Groups
All groups are open to both mothers and fathers who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth or infant loss. These groups are unstructured, relaxed get togethers, sharing as much or as little information as you want to, over a coffee with others who simply understand.
Sydney Support Group
Bears Of Hope offer support, scrap and chat evenings in Sydney for parents who have experienced a miscarriage, stillbirth or infant loss. These nights are open to both mothers and fathers seeking support or the opportunity to support others. No matter how long ago your loss was you are welcome to join us.
Whether you have experience in scrapbooking or not, find therapeutic and healing benefits through scrapbooking your baby’s precious life story, your thoughts and feelings, and keepsakes surrounding that time. We have a staff member available to help you scrapbook if needed.
There is no obligation to scrapbook on the evening. We have some parents who scrapbook and others who attend just for the chats.
