Twins Trust online support communities offer safe spaces for parents to talk to someone who has experienced the loss of a baby or babies.

We want you to feel less alone in your grief, and we want to be able to find you the right support which is why we have four dedicated groups for different types of loss and one main community group open to everyone. We recognise that by connecting with others who have suffered a similar loss it can provide a sense of support and safety that cannot be found elsewhere.

Our communities are there to share experiences, photographs, memories and mutual support at a time where you may feel very isolated. You may wish to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with, we simply ask that you always do so with compassion and care for others.

All our groups are hosted on Facebook and are moderated by members of our Family Services Team Monday to Friday; 9am to 3pm.
