Bedfordshire Sands events during BLAW
6 October 2019
During Baby Loss Awareness Week, Bedfordshire Sands will either be hosting events, have a presence at some events or aware of events happening in Bedfordshire. As there is a lot happening over the next two weeks, we have summarised all the events that we are aware off in Bedfordshire in one place.
As you can see there is plenty going on and you would be welcome to attend as many or few of the events as you wish, to remember our loved ones and raise awareness of baby loss. Please spread the word with #BLAW2019 #babyloss #WaveOfLight.
The Bedford River bridge will also be turning their lights Pink and Blue during BLAW.
If there are any other events you are aware off, please let us know.
