What is National Bereaved Parents Day?
National Bereaved Parents Day was set up in 2020 by the charity A Child of Mine, after they realised that there wasn’t a specific day that honoured bereaved parents from all walks of life.
National Bereaved Parents day brings together anyone affected by the death of a child to show bereaved parents that they are not alone.
A Child Of Mine aim to unite every bereaved parent from all walks of life and to try to break the silence around loss. Babies and Children do die and it’s time to stop the taboo and start talking about it and be there for bereaved parents.
When is National Bereaved Parents Day?
National Bereaved Parents Day will take place on Saturday 3 July to raise awareness for all parents who have lost a child of any age, and from any circumstance.
Please join us to help spread the message, keep that conversation going, raise awareness and show the bereaved parent community that they are NOT alone.
A theme for the 2027 edition has not been confirmed in the sources checked for this guide. A Child of Mine’s campaign page includes “This is my place” materials from an earlier campaign; they should not be labelled as the announced 2027 theme.
