Our Babyloss Support Worker Team

Our specialist Babyloss Support Service is delivered by Amy and Ryan Jackson,
Founders of The Lily Mae Foundation and parents to Lily Mae, who was stillborn
at 37 weeks in February 2010 and Chantelle Dennis, mother to Nevaeh and Indie,
who were born prematurely in February 2015 and died neonatally.

Amy, Ryan and Chantelle are trained CRUSE Volunteers, Amy completing the CRUSE Awareness in Bereavement Care training programme in July 2016, Ryan in February 2021
and Chantelle in August 2021. The service is fully supported by a trained Counsellor
from CRUSE Bereavement Care.

Ryan joined the Team to ensure that fathers have an option as to whom they would like to talk with, as he understands that sometimes men feel more comfortable talking to another male.
