Féileacáin the Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Support Group of Ireland are calling on buildings across Ireland to join the global wave of light on Tuesday 15th October 2024.
October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness month and each year on October 15th there is a global wave of Light where across the World at 7pm candles, monuments, landmarks and buildings are lit in the campaign’s colours, pink and blue in memory of our babies. We hope turning buildings and landmarks pink and blue will spark conversations about baby loss and support people affected by miscarriage, stillbirth and neonatal death.
In 2018 Liberty Hall was the first and only Irish Building to be lit up blue and pink for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance and we are absolutely honoured and delighted to have over 150 buildings including Hospitals, Castles, Hotels and Civic Buildings lighting up across the Country this year.
If you would like more information please contact Nina Doyle on 087-3477675 or email waveoflight@feileacain.ie.
