Baby Loss Support Sessions

Creative sessions in nature for anyone who has experienced the loss of a baby at any stage of pregnancy or shortly after birth, recently or long ago.

Land Art for Baby Loss is a creative support group for anyone who has been affected by the loss of a baby, at any stage of pregnancy or shortly after birth – whether recently or long ago.

Half of all UK adults have said that they, or someone they know, have experienced the loss of a baby.

Each month we meet in a peaceful ARC community garden to create art using natural materials such as leaves, berries and stones.

Facilitated by a small team with lived and professional experience of baby loss, the sessions encourage people to take time for themselves, to process their emotions in a gentle way, and to feel connected with their babies.

Since the project began, we have loved seeing it develop into a gentle community of understanding, with bereaved parents supporting one another across the generations, and feeling safe to express their emotions, knowing they will be understood. 

‘It was incredible how in the centre of a town, I was able to feel like nobody else was around and I could be in my own safe space in nature and give myself the time with my baby and feelings in a way I absolutely wouldn’t have otherwise because I/we don’t give ourselves the time in normal daily life.’

If you or anyone you know would welcome this creative time in nature, please join us.

We meet on the third Saturday of each month throughout the year at 1-3pm in the East Garden, All Saints’ Church, Leamington, CV31 1AA

To reserve your free place, book here or email Kate, Netti and Becca at artnaturetherapy@gmail.com

Thanks to the generous support of the WCC Councillors’ fund who make these sessions possible.

'Having a dedicated time each week to access my feelings in a safe and supported space showed me that I will not fall apart if I experience my feelings. Learning a way of expressing myself in nature has reminded me that nature soothes me and makes me feel more connected to the world around me which, in turn, makes me feel less alone.'
