Surrey Sands have launched a project in partnership with Epsom and Ewell Borough Council to build a dedicated Babies Memorial within Epsom Cemetery.

For those who don’t know this cemetery it is in an elevated, peaceful and sunny position just below the famous Epsom Grandstand with stunning views in the opposite direction across London.  Originally opened in 1871 and extended in 1996 it now covers 25 beautifully maintained acres.

Epsom and Ewell Borough Council have generously provided a 27’x27’ plot in the southern extension of the cemetery. The Babies Memorial Garden will form the central focal point of the section to the left of the central driveway; grave spaces to the back of it will be reserved for baby burials, and the ones immediately to the front for family burials, with baby. Surrey Sands are raising the funds for the design and construction whilst the land has kindly been donated by the Council.

A lengthy design process has now started with the aim of creating a tranquil space with stone sculpture, seating, planting, memorial walls and some creative paving! 

If you wish to make a donation towards the project you can do so via this page, however we are also hoping to engage the support of several independent fundraisers doing their own challenges.  If you would like to get involved please contact Lorna Bland Chairman Surrey Sands on surrey.sands@btinternet.com  .

Additional fundraisers for this project with their own pages are:-
