Let us bring light into your darkest of days
Luna's Fund is a baby loss and pregnancy after loss charity offering practical and emotional support to bereaved parents and expectant parents in Plymouth, Truro and the surrounding areas.
We aim to support parents after the loss of their baby before, during or after birth by offering a choice of practical services that they can access immediately upon leaving the hospital. Our criteria is stillbirth (24 weeks pregnancy) through to 28 days neonatal death.
We hope our services will positively impact their grieving process and give them hope for their future; their 'new normal'.
We've provided 67 relaxing getaways for parents to escape from their harsh, unplanned realities
We've booked 63 antenatal scans for parents experiencing the anxieties and worries of pregnancy after loss
87p for every £1 donated is spent on our charitable objects
How can we support you?
Nursery
Redecoration
Redecoration of the baby’s nursery for parents to feel supported tackling this arduous task. Restoring this room to its original or alternative use if parents find this room is too painful to remain as a nursery.
Relaxing
Getaways
A relaxing getaway to help the mind recover from trauma and the body recover from labour. Giving you the time and space to grieve in peace and to reconnect.
Food Shopping
Deliveries
Food shopping deliveries to give breathing space between grieving parents and the outside world whilst also offering financial relief for the family.

Our criteria for baby loss is stillbirth (24 weeks gestation) through to a neonatal death (up to 28 days) in Plymouth, through Derriford Hospital, or Cornwall, through the Royal Cornwall Hospital. We are working hard to expand our baby loss services to the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital and Torbay in 2026, but we are not able to help at present.
Our criteria for pregnancy after loss is a previous stillbirth (24 weeks) through to a neonatal loss (up to 28 days) and now pregnant following the loss in Devon or Cornwall. We use private scanning centres to offer reassurance during the pregnancy. The parent/s should be able to access Babybond Exeter, Babybond Plymouth or the BabySkan Studio, Truro, to be eligible for our services.

Thank you so much to Rebecca from PCH who presented us with the final total of £7,027.30! In her words:
“It has been wonderful to work alongside Luna’s Fund for the last 12 months, raising vital funds for such an important charity in the city of Plymouth. The charity has been widely supported by our staff, contractors and their friends and families through attending our annual charity quiz and football match, by donating amazing prizes to our raffles and so much more.
We wish Luna’s Fund every success for their future, and we look forward to following their charity journey as they continue to blossom and provide much needed support to individuals across Devon and Cornwall when they need it most.”
