Protect our Trees of Tranquillity

Organised by Simba Charity

Since the start of 2024 Scotland has endured 3 major storms, flooding and high winds resulting in several of our beautiful Trees of Tranquillity being sadly damaged. Right now, we need your help to preserve these much loved remembrance sculptures.

Story

Our stunning hand-crafted, life-sized steel sculptures are unique to SiMBA and are much loved by bereaved families across Scotland. Every Tree of Tranquillity is adorned with copper leaves, each one honouring a baby who has died. Each leaf is carefully engraved with a heartfelt message. They mean so much to so many. However, since the beginning of this year, we’ve endured some unprecedented extreme weather and the storms have affected some of our precious Trees, with both leaves and branches being sadly damaged.

We aim to fix any notified damage as soon as we can, but we need funds to do this. So, we are reaching out now to ask all our supporters to donate – whatever you can afford - towards a ‘Preservation Fund’ specifically for our Trees of Tranquillity. We recognise that our Trees of Tranquillity offer a safe haven for our bereaved families to remember and honour their baby in a quiet and reflective space. We need to raise £5000 to ensure we can preserve our beautiful Trees in the years to come.
