💜 Calling all kind-hearted knitters for our Angel Babies💜
For over 30 years, we have worked alongside NHS Fife, supporting families who have sadly lost their baby during or after pregnancy.
In recent years, we have included a small knitted heart when families come to collect their baby’s ashes – a simple but meaningful gesture that lets them know they are not alone. 💕

We are now running low on hearts and would be so grateful for the help of our wonderful knitting community.

✨ If you can knit (or know someone who does), we would love donations of small hearts in a variety of colours – pinks, blues, yellows, reds, or neutral (for unknown gender).

Every single heart is treasured by the families who receive them.
If you’re able to help, they can be handed into any of our funeral homes (Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes or Dalgety Bay). 🧶💜
Thank you so much for your kindness and support.
