Precious Wings

At Precious Wings we are passionate about helping families who are faced with the devastating loss of their child. The positive feedback has been overwhelming.

We supply Memory Boxes to 42 hospitals across Queensland and these are given to families who lose a baby, of any gestation, and to families who lose a child up to the age of 18, regardless of cause of death. We also supply miscarriage memory bags to early pregnancy units and emergency departments and provide free education sessions to hospital staff about caring for bereaved families. We have also

recently started donating memory boxes to families where an adult is dying or has died, especially if there are children involved. We work with palliative care services in the hospital and the community and donate memory boxes to funeral homes and directly to families. The creation of Precious Wings was driven by the experience of the loss of our own children and the strong belief that similarly bereaved families would benefit greatly from the support and comfort that the receipt of memory boxes would provide. We never imagined just how much those families would appreciate that support. Unfortunately, the need is great and our capacity is limited. Precious Wings currently relies heavily on community support, corporate donations and our own fundraising activities to maintain the service to hospitals and families. Also, many of our donations come from families who have received one of our memory boxes or from their own family or friends who have seen the comfort they provide.

Some words capture grief in a way that feels almost impossible to explain.

“𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲. 𝗜𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗼 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲.”

When you love a child, they become part of who you are. And when they die, that love doesn’t disappear. It remains - in your memories, in the life you imagined, in the moments you wish they were here for, and in the person you have become.

Grief changes shape, and so do you. But the love remains.

Your child. Your love. Always remembered. 🤍

Please share their name 🤍🩵🩷

With gentleness,
Precious Wings

As the seasons begin to change, we honour the children remembered in September.
If this month holds a birthday, anniversary, or meaningful date, we invite you to share their name and story.
Their memory lives on in every heart that loves them.

At Precious Wings, we know that losing an adolescent or young adult is a profoundly life-altering experience, and that support for families after this kind of loss is often limited.

We are offering a grief support group for parents and carers who have lost an adolescent or young adult (approximately 13–30 years). This age range is a guide only - we understand every family and every loss is unique, and we are very open to flexibility.

Many parents tell us how meaningful it can be to sit alongside others who truly understand this specific kind of grief. This group offers a gentle, compassionate space to come together in shared understanding - to speak openly (or simply listen), reflect, and connect.

There is no right way to grieve, only your way - and you don’t have to walk this path alone.

You are so welcome - just as you are.

Today is 𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐅𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫'𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲.

A day to recognise and honour fathers whose children are no longer with them, but whose love remains as strong as ever.

To the dads carrying memories instead of milestones, photos instead of hugs, and a love that has nowhere to go but still fills their hearts every day, we see you.

Your child matters.
Your grief matters.
Your fatherhood matters.

Whether your child was lost through miscarriage, TFMR, stillbirth, infancy, childhood, or later in life, you will always be their dad.

Today, and every day, we remember the precious children who are deeply loved and dearly missed, and we acknowledge the fathers who continue to carry them in their hearts.

With love, from all of us at Precious Wings.

🌿 Townsville bereaved families - we would love to meet you
While the Precious Wings team is in Townsville this October, we are holding a special evening for bereaved parents, grandparents and adult family members to come together, connect and spend time with others who understand.
If you have experienced the death of a baby, child or young person - from pregnancy loss through to 25 years of age, from any cause and at any time, you are warmly welcome.
There is no expectation to talk, share your story or do anything that doesn't feel comfortable. You can simply come along, have a cuppa, meet other local families and be in a space where people understand.
🌿 There will also be an opportunity to create something very special.
Families can make a Precious Wings Memory Box in memory or honour of their baby, child or young person. Your box will then be gifted to another bereaved family in the Townsville region - a beautiful way to honour your child's life and let another family know that they are not alone.
Although we are only in Townsville for a short time, we hope the connections and friendships made during this evening continue long after we leave.

✨ Join us this morning for Precious Space! ✨

Whether you're returning or joining us for the first time, you're warmly welcome.
📅 Thursday
⏰ Drop in anytime during 10am - 12 noon.

Parking can be found around our building or across the road at Homezone shopping complex.

Grief can feel lonely. Sometimes you want to talk about your child. Sometimes you don't. Sometimes you simply want to sit with a cuppa, breathe, and be around people who understand without having to explain.

You might choose to:
Share stories and memories of your child.
Chat with Karen, our facilitator or connect with other bereaved parents.
Enjoy a tea or coffee.
Sit quietly and simply be.
Create a small keepsake or join in a gentle mindfulness activity such as making felt hearts for our memory boxes or other remembrance pieces.
Curl up on the couch for a moment of peace.

You are welcome to bring a support person with you, whatever you need on the day is okay. Please note this is an adult only space.
Surrounded by understanding, compassion and gentle support, we hope Precious Space offers a place where you feel safe, seen and a little less alone. Our door is always open. We'd love to welcome you x
