The street trees in Fitzmaurice Street are glowing pink and blue for the month of October as a way for Council to assist in the promotion of Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month.
This month, people around the world will take time to remember those who have experienced the devastating loss of a baby.
Wagga Wagga's 'The Vilomah Community', established in 2021, supports bereaved families in the Riverina following stillbirth.
Founders, Bek and Megan, set up the support service so that no family ever has to walk the journey of pregnancy and infant loss alone. They can be contacted at: www.vilomahcommunity.com.
Wagga Wagga City Council's Manager Community Services Madeleine Scully said this temporary lighting display is a practical way that Council can support the community to raise the profile of important local, state and national community awareness campaigns.
