Creating memories

Our casts are the only 'life-size' thing we have of Dane, which is lovely. Now I can never forget how little and gorgeous his beautiful hands and feet were.– Krystel

For many parents, creating memories is a way to honour and celebrate the life of their baby. Our booklet, ‘Creating Memories’, has guidance and practical ideas on a range of mementos and keepsakes you can create to keep the memory of your baby close, even long after their birth.
