UHG to mark International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day

University Hospital Galway is hosting a ceremony tomorrow to mark International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.

The ceremony, which will include a choir, readings and poetry, aims to acknowledge and remember all pregnancy and infant losses.

The ceremony will take place at 6.30 tomorrow evening at the hospital, and people can also attend virtually, via Zoom.

A candle lighting ceremony will take place, while the gable end of the Nurses' Home will be illuminated with blue and pink light.

Helen Byrnes, Bereavement Support Midwife at UHG, says this is some families' first opportunity to acknowledge their loss publicly.
