Story

Our family has chosen to support the charity 'Made a Mark', in memory of Amy as the memory boxes they provided us with were invaluable to Molly and Sophie whilst Amy was in hospital.

Figures show that a child loses a parent every 22 minutes in the UK, equating to around 111 children being bereaved of a parent every single day.

These boxes helped Molly and Sophie to process and understand their loss and provided them with lasting memories.

Any money raised will be used to help other families by providing memory boxes and supporting materials to hospitals and hospices, which can then be given to children and their families following a loss. 

On behalf of Amy, Molly and Sophie, thank you so much.
