The charity funds a network of specialist research centres across the UK, driving breakthroughs in understanding why pregnancy complications happen and translating this knowledge into life-saving care. Alongside this vital science, Tommy’s offers a lifeline to parents through its pregnancy health information and a free, confidential helpline run by specialist midwives. This service provides expert advice and non-judgemental support on everything from planning for pregnancy to mental health, and offers a listening ear to anyone who has experienced the trauma of losing a baby.
“Tommy’s emotional support has been phenomenal and, even when they discharged me, they made it clear they were still there for us. If not for Tommy’s, my son Asher wouldn’t be here. They gave us the hope and strength to keep going when we felt we could not and I can’t thank them enough.”
