Gifts for Mums Who’ve Lost Children
Of course, no present will ease the loss of a child but there are thoughtful gifts you can give to women who are trying to cope with pregnancy loss or the loss of a child.
Spa Treatments, a spa near her
Show the mum who’s lost her child that it’s okay to look after herself, especially during difficult times. She may wish to go to the spa alone or perhaps you could join her. Many spas offer deals and treatment packages throughout the year.
Hive books: Let her escape in a book and support her high street
Hive’s online bookshop has a huge collection of fiction and nonfiction books across genres. A proportion of each sale goes towards an independent bookshop in the UK, so choose a bookshop local to your loved mum. Choose a book that will have her giggling or pick a book that will help her develop coping strategies to deal with grief.
