Precious Wings

To provide love, hope, understanding and support to families facing the devastating loss of their child. The positive feedback has been overwhelming.

To ensure all families who have lost a child don't feel alone and that they receive the support they need to navigate this difficult grief journey. At Precious Wings we are passionate about helping families who are faced with the devastating loss of their child. We supply Memory Boxes to 42 hospitals across Queensland and these are given to families who lose a baby, of any gestation, and to famili

es 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.

Introducing 𝐓𝐞𝐝𝐝𝐲 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐓𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲

So many of our families share that their Precious Wings teddy goes with them - on holidays, to special places, or simply alongside them in everyday moments.

A quiet companion.

A symbol of love that continues, wherever the journey leads.

We would love to begin sharing these journeys with our community.
Each Tuesday, we invite you to share a photo of your Rosie, George, Toby - or whatever you have lovingly renamed your bear - and the places they travel with you.

Near or far, every journey holds meaning.

If you are happy for us to share one of your photos, please post it in the comments below along with where you were when you took the photo.

As winter settles in, we wrap our hearts around the memories of children remembered in June.

If this month holds a significant date for your child or a child dear to you, we invite you to share their name and story.

Their light continues to shine.

𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸

This week, we pause to gently acknowledge the many hands and hearts behind Precious Wings.

𝗧𝗼 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀 - 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘦𝘵, 𝘶𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴.

Whether you are packing memory boxes and miscarriage memory bags, delivering hospital orders, washing and ironing wraps, knitting and crocheting with love, attending working bees, supporting fundraising and events, or sharing our story through social media - each act matters more than words can hold.

National Volunteer Week is a time to recognise the important role volunteers play in building connection and supporting communities - and we see that every day in you.

Because of you, families are met with compassion, care, and the reminder that they are not alone.

Thank you for showing up, just as you are. 🤍

If you feel called to be part of this work, we warmly invite you to join us.

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐊𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲
Today we celebrate our founder and CEO, Kerry Gordon.

Kerry’s heart and vision have shaped Precious Wings into what it is today - a place of care, compassion, and support for bereaved families. In honour of her son Toby, she continues to show up with deep commitment, ensuring no family walks this path alone.

Much of what happens at Precious Wings is often unseen - the quiet moments, the countless hours, the steady dedication - all carried with love and purpose.

Because of Kerry, families are held, memories are honoured, and meaningful support continues to grow.

We are so grateful for all that you give.
Happy Birthday Kerry

🦋 Precious Wings Support Groups 🦋

Precious Wings Support Groups provide a gentle, safe, and non-confronting space for parents grieving the loss of a baby or child of any age and from any cause, including stillbirth, TFMR, sudden loss, or the loss of an older child.

📍 Held at our Windsor headquarters
🗓 Monthly on the last Tuesday of each month - next group May 26th
⏰ 6:30pm - 8:30pm

We warmly welcome both mums and dads, with attendance often evenly split. Many parents return each month, finding comfort in the meaningful connections formed with others who truly understand.

Each gathering also offers the opportunity to create memory boxes in your child’s name - a gentle, hands-on way to honour and remember them.

Places are limited and registration is essential. Please reserve your spot here: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/2026-precious-wings-support-group-630pm-830pm-tickets-1903101139739?aff=oddtdtcreator
