"acknowledges the significance of early losses"
"Before this project, we had no specific space to support people going through early pregnancy loss. The room we used was functional, but it felt dark and clinical, not the kind of environment anyone should have to be in at such a distressing time."
"people cope with the trauma, pain, and isolation by providing compassionate care during a profoundly difficult time,"
A dedicated Dandelion Room at Northampton General Hospital offers a calm, private space for women experiencing miscarriage and early pregnancy loss. The room features a private outdoor area and a dedicated shower to improve comfort and privacy during a distressing time. The project was funded by the Spencer Ward team, which raised £7,000, and by donations to Northamptonshire Health Charity. Staff reported that previously available rooms felt dark and clinical and that the new space aims to help people cope with trauma, pain, and isolation through compassionate care.
