Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We are raising money in honour of our son Arran, who is turning one on 22nd June 2021 🌻

When Arran passed away, we were given a memory box from SiMBA, which is one of our most prized possessions. This fundraiser will go towards a tree of tranquility in Stirling - giving local parents a place to visit and honour their babies.

The SiMBA Trees of Tranquillity are unique to SiMBA, they are stunning hand crafted, life sized sculptures, made from copper, where each leaf on the tree represents a baby who has died. Each Tree is adorned with individual leaves, each engraved with a name and personal message.

The Tree of Tranquillity is not just for the newly bereaved, but also for parents who lost their baby years ago, and were perhaps provided with little or no recognition of their baby’s existence. The Tree provides the means to express a private and public declaration in memory of the lost hopes and dreams for our babies. It is a beautiful symbol of remembrance, that effectively ‘grows’ as leaves are added.

We would love to raise some of the outstanding funds for SiMBA to have a tranquility tree in Stirling, in memory of our beautiful boy on his first birthday - thank you so much for any donation you can make 🤍
