Donations
The Willows Group runs entirely on donations from organised fundraising events and our supporters. All donations are gratefully received and make a huge difference to everyone involved with the group.
We work closely with both the Bereavement Team and Rainbow Team at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, helping to provide practical support, resources and special touches that can make an incredibly difficult time a little more bearable for families.
Past fundraising has allowed us to:
- Fund training days at the Royal Berkshire Hospital to support staff in caring for bereaved families.
- Contribute towards soundproofing the Willow and Maple Rooms within the maternity suite, helping to provide a quieter and more private space for families.
- Provide counselling for families through Daring2Hope, giving families access to additional emotional support following bereavement.
- Purchase books and furnishings for the Willow and Maple Rooms, helping to make these spaces more comfortable, welcoming and homely.
- Support the Rainbow Team and provide special Rainbow Gift Bags for new arrivals and their families.
- Provide refreshments and gifts for the Christmas Memorial Service, helping families come together to remember and honour their babies.
- Purchase cameras and casting kits for the Bereavement Team, helping to create precious memories and keepsakes for families to treasure.
- Host parent support meetings and craft evenings, bringing bereaved parents together, helping them connect with others who understand and providing opportunities to create meaningful keepsakes.
Every donation, fundraising event and act of support helps us continue to be there for families when they need us most.
Thank you for supporting The Willows Group and helping us make a difference to bereaved families.
