Story

Post Pals is turning 21, sadly since we began over 50 Pals have passed away.

Most charities stop supporting families when a child dies, those who do continue, stop after 2 years. Post Pals is holding a weekend for families in April & inviting everyone from the past 21 years who would like to come together with others who understand.

For those who wish, they can have a fun day at Adventure Island theme park on the seafront.

In the evening, we are transforming an event space for our 3-course dinner. We'll have a live artist who can include their memorial child on request.

On Sunday, we're gathering at the sea to read our the Pals names & release petals into the sea followed by lunch.

As you can imagine, an event like this isn't cheap to put on, so any donations towards it would be very much appreciated!

If you would like to sponsor something specific, we have a list on our website here https://www.postpals.co.uk/news/post-pals-memorial-weekend-appeal/
