Our volunteers are amazing people who give their time and talents to support families, host events, fundraise, advocate for other families, and help out at our offices throughout Australia.
They come from all walks of life and hail from right across Australia, and what our volunteers all have in common is a passion for ensuring that no bereaved parent feels alone, isolated, or misunderstood in the grief they feel for their baby who died.
