Féileacáin (Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Support Charity) was formed in 2009 and subsequently registered as a charity in 2010 (CHY – 19635). Féileacáin was formed by a group of bereaved parents to offer support to anyone affected by the death of a baby around the time of birth, and the organization is now the national charity supporting families affected by perinatal loss. Féileacáin is a not-for-profit organization and receives no funding from central government, relying instead on the support of our community and the families who avail of our services.
