Finding Rainbows is a charity that offers support to anyone who has suffered the loss of a baby, child or through early pregnancy loss. We are based in Tameside, Greater Manchester but reach out across the UK and further to individuals and families seeking support.
Finding Rainbows understand that bereavement can lead to many other complex issues and so work closely with other organisations in the community who can offer support in different areas. We know that child and baby loss is different for every Mum and Dad, and every family. We are here to support you.
