Baby memorial service for Mother's Day 2021

The annual baby memorial service for Mother's Day (14 March 2021) cannot be held in the hospital chapel this year due to Covid restrictions. Instead parents and relatives who have lost a baby are invited to join a special service of love, thanksgiving and remembrance from the chaplaincy team and specialist bereavement midwife Bev Shelley. Join our celebration online.
