Story
I will be cycling from Lands end to John o Groats approx 875 miles!! As part of a Guinness world record challenge with my partner Gavin and paraplegic friend Shaun who will be in wheelchairs, for my personal challenge I will be trying to raise as much money as possible for this wonderful charity...
My connection to Dresses for Angels comes through a friend and work colleague Karl Reynolds and his lovely wife Rachel who sadly lost their baby Lily Jayne in March last year.
Dresses for angels provided them with a beautiful gown they were able to lay Lily to rest in x
Dresses For Angel's was founded by Lisa Fletcher in January 2016 after her daughter Lillie Grace Fletcher was sadly stillborn full term just 3 days before her due date on 10.10.15. We collect ladies old wedding dresses and bridesmaids/prom dresses and turn them into beautiful little outfits and then put them into packs with a blanket and a hat and a nappy cover, and also a candle and a love heart and they are all packed up in net bags that are also made from the wedding dress and then the packs are donated free of charge to local hospitals, funeral homes or sent direct to families who request them. We have used over 120 donated dresses so far and have sent out over 400 packs to the hospitals that will dress 400 beautiful little angels from early miscarriage all the way up to full term in many different parts of the U.K ranging from London to Wales and our local area of Sheffield.
Please donate if you can x
