Amber NT, the leading organisation in the Northern Territory providing support to individuals and families affected by child loss, including miscarriage, since 1985, is at risk of winding back support services across the often challenging Christmas / New Year's period due to funding shortfalls.

On Monday the organisation revealed that "the ability to keep our doors open is becoming harder by the day".

In a statement, Amber NT said they have established their organisation as the primary source of "compassionate, tailored support" for Territorians dealing with the loss of a child at any stage, from conception through to 18 years of age, but that role is now at risk.

"Like so many small not-for-profits, our funding has dwindled significantly and the ability to keep our doors open is becoming harder by the day," the group said.

"The small team and members of the Board have been working tirelessly in identifying and applying for grants, seeking sponsorship from local businesses and holding raffles and bake sales, amongst many other things. But, we must now turn to the community for immediate help to keep Amber NT supporting those who need it most."

NT Minister for Health Steve Edgington told National Indigenous Times he commends the work of Amber NT providing care services to families impacted by the loss of a child.

"The previous Labor government left us with $9 billion in debt and has left us with limited ability to increase funding beyond existing arrangements. NT Health is working to release an early payment to Amber NT to help meet immediate cost pressures," he said.

"I understand Amber NT is also seeking other external sources of funding."

Amber NT's board said it is trying "every means possible" to raise $50,000 to ensure support services for bereaved families and communities continues over the Christmas and New Year period, and is now calling on members of the public to do what they can to help.
