🍕 Florentina’s Feast Friday’s 🍕Boxing Day🎄❤️

Thank you to Mariella and family for sponsoring this evenings Boxing Day pizza’s. It’s been amazing to see how many big smiles it brought to the children. Spending Christmas in hospital is incredibly tough for so many children and their families. This gesture really helped bring a bit of cheer and comfort when it was most needed. It’s lovely that this is Mariella and family second pizza sponsor, we are very grateful for all your support!

As it’s Christmas we also had the privilege of delivering some very special gifts alongside the pizzas. A huge thank you to for donating 25 beautiful girls’ gift boxes each thoughtfully filled with notebooks, a drinks bottle, a pencil case and the loveliest badges and gems to personalise them. Acts of kindness like this means everything. Small businesses like can play such an important part and making a huge difference in bringing happiness and a little bit of magic when it’s needed most. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts 💕

Thank you to for volunteering along side me this evening it was a special one 🥰.

🎄🔔Bells for heaven 🔔🎄

Today at midday this Christmas Eve, my family and friends rang the bells for children in heaven. Taking a moment to remember Florentina and all the little angels taken far too soon.

On a day filled with light and tenderness we hold their brief but beautiful lives close to our hearts. Though they are no longer in our arms they remain deeply loved forever and always.

We love and miss you Florentina 🩷🎄

Beautiful words from Jude’s mummy…

Jude was so incredibly inquisitive; he’d ask questions from the moment he woke up to the moment he went to bed. He loved everything nature, dinosaurs and animals. He had so much passion and determination for dancing and theatre. He was a real bookworm; I remember him being less than a year old and having a dinosaur book that he would take everywhere with him. He was kind and loving. He is missed, and will always be missed, more than words can describe.

Beautiful words from Leila’s mummy…

Leila was diagnosed with neuroblastoma just before her 2nd birthday and gained her angel wings at the age of 4.
Despite everything she went through, Leila was an incredible little girl — always happy, always smiling, and full of chat.
She loved Paw Patrol, Peppa Pig, and her favourites were Bluey and unicorns. Leila was one of the bravest little girls, and she was deeply loved by everyone who knew her.
You will be loved forever, Leila — our beautiful little unicorn 🤍🦄Mummy and Daddy 💔💔💔💔

Beautiful words from Flo’s mummy…

Flo was a superstar, a planet loving eco warrior, she was on first name terms with Greta Thunberg and didn’t think twice about emailing Boris Johnson to tell him to turn the lights off in Downing Street!
Flo loved music, Elton John and Andy and the Odd Socks being her favourite and she loved dancing and musicals.
Flo was loving and kind and thought of others right up until the end. This Christmas try and be a bit more Flo.

Beautiful words from Isla’s mummy…

Isla only 2 years old when she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma but she never let anything dull her sparkle. Isla was a bright, loud and happy child who loved dinosaurs, Christmas, youtube and singing as loud (and terribly) as possible with me. No matter how hard things got for her she always had a smile on her face and she made everyone around her smile back. Her favourite song was Last Christmas by Wham and every time it plays I know she is somewhere in heaven singing along too.
Isla lost her long battle in January 2022
She was a real life superhero and will be forever7 🎗️

🎄🩵Memorial tree - Joseph🩵🎄

Beautiful words from Joseph’s mummy…

Joseph was the smiliest, happiest boy you could ever meet. Though he was only three years old when he passed away, those three short years left a lasting imprint on everyone who knew him. He was full of fun, energy and laughter and he had a deep love for animals. I often think that, had he lived longer, he would have been a farmer; he was so hands-on, creative, and practical. Joseph was a very special little boy who will be forever loved.

Beautiful words from Charlie’s mummy…

Charlie Blossom was the best kid and a real pro at life on Earth. Smart, hilarious, deeply kind and wise beyond her years. She filled every space with light. This is our first Christmas with her as our Angel, holding her close in a different way, but feeling her everywhere. I miss her so much.

Beautiful words from Gracie mummy…

Gracie was so naturally funny, she would light up a room just walking in. She loved peppa pig so much and singing Disney songs, she loved to have snuggles on the sofa and someone always tickling her hand.

🎄🩵Memorial tree - Adamas🩵🎄

Beautiful words from Adamas’s mummy…

Adamas, our love, our forever hero.
With ocean blue eyes and a smile that could light up the darkest night.

Throughout his three years on this earth he faced challenges that felt impossible, yet he fought them with the brightest smile and the greatest courage. His strength was beyond words.

We love him and miss him every second of every day. We find comfort knowing that above, where there is no pain, he dances with other little angels…free, joyful and surrounded by light 🤍🦋🪽
