On December 1st 2009 at the Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro beautiful little baby girl Ella was born. Tragically she had passed away due to unknown reasons.
As you can imagine this has been the most harrowing and upsetting experiences that can be imagined for the parent's.
In the UK tragic circumstances like this happen to over 6500 parents per year.
4 months on they now can reflect and understand how important it was to have collected all the keep sakes and memories they possibly could and the priceless photos and items that they collated will stay with them forever.
With the help of their family and friends they have started Ella's Memory with the sole purpose to help and assist the parents of still born babies have at hand via the hospitals the equipment required to compile their own memories of their beautiful babies in comfortable surroundings.
nitially the fund raising efforts will help parents in their home county of Cornwall however in time the aim is to spread across the Southwest and help as many parents as possible.
