In 2022, we launched our #WeSeeAMum campaign to recognise and celebrate all mums, whatever their journey. Since then, thousands of you have shared your stories, photos and what being a mum means to you. We hope you'll join us again this Mother's Day to help every mum feel seen.

Today, we're proud to launch our Big Give Christmas challenge. From now until midday 5 December, your donations will be doubled at no extra cost to you. For every £5 you donate, we'll receive £10 to help families like Shema & Ian's. Find out more: bit.ly/468WQyR

Thank you to @mariacaulfield, @_OliviaBlake and @KlassMyleene for joining us today at our National Centre for Miscarriage Research. We feel hopeful this important visit will mean positive steps for the recommendations outlined in our #MiscarriageMatters campaign.

“There is no scientific logic behind waiting until a woman has had 3 miscarriages to provide care. We don’t wait for someone to have 3 heart attacks to take them seriously.” Prof @arricoomarasamy speaking on why the graded model of care is so crucial. #MiscarriageMatters

For every £1 of Government spend on maternity care, only 1p is spent on pregnancy research. But, to the many families going through baby loss & our dedicated Tommy's researchers, this lifesaving research is worth more than 1% of funding. #BabyLoss

Today, our Joint Policy Unit with @SandsUk published the first Saving Babies’ Lives Progress Report which clearly shows too many families continue to suffer the heartbreak of losing a baby. Read the report: tommys.org/about-us/news-vie… #BabyLoss #SavingBabiesLives (1/3)

Today, we’re pleased to launch our new 10-year strategy. It’s inclusive, designed to be courageous & defines who we are as an organisation. Together, we can stop the heartbreak and devastation of baby loss and make pregnancy and birth safe – for everyone: bit.ly/3prunF6

On 15 May, our Joint Policy Unit with @SandsUK is launching the first Saving Babies' Lives Progress Report in @UKParliament. It's so important as many MPs as possible are informed about the findings which is why we need your help. Ask your MP to attend: bit.ly/442oGwX

We know many in our community may be struggling today but with the help of our ambassadors and midwives, we just wanted to let you know, you’re not alone. We see you and we’re with you. On Mother's Day, and every other day you need us ❤️ #WeSeeAMum #MothersDay #BabyLoss

“For someone with the profile and influence of the Scottish First Minister to speak out about her own miscarriage in 2011 and explain that her grief will never leave her is such a powerful statement” - Kath Abrahams, Tommy’s CEO #BreakTheSilence #BabyLoss
