Funding from the Pears Foundation, secured through Homerton Hope, supported the refurbishment of a birthing area and the creation of an improved bereavement suite within Homerton’s maternity services.
The funding helped create more comfortable, calming and welcoming environments for women, birthing people and their families.
The refurbished birthing area provides a setting that feels less clinical while continuing to support safe, high-quality maternity care. The bereavement suite offers families experiencing pregnancy or baby loss a more private, peaceful and compassionate space during an incredibly difficult time. Giving birth and experiencing loss are deeply personal experiences. The environment in which families receive care can significantly influence how comfortable, supported and reassured they feel.
Through the Pears Foundation’s support, Homerton has been able to provide greater dignity, comfort and compassionate care at some of the most important and sensitive moments in families’ lives.
