Still Aware

In Australia, Stillbirth is the leading cause of infant death. Many of these deaths are preventable. Still Aware’s mission is to end preventable stillbirth through awareness and education.

Still Aware is the first and only not-for-profit charity, based in Adelaide, but are national. Dedicated to raising awareness of Stillbirth, saving lives through the education of health care providers, expectant mothers, and their families. I myself was shocked and dismayed to learn that stillbirth is the leading cause of infant death in Australia:

- more than 2000 babies are ‘born still’ every year in Australia

- six babies a day, one baby, one family grieving every five hours

- for every baby that dies of SIDS, 35 are stillborn

These figures are as astounding as they are devastating, but more tragic is the knowledge that up to sixty percent of these vulnerable babies’ lives could be saved.
