Story
The Forever Butterfly Charity started with just one person who wanted to give a little something back after being helped herself after her son was stillborn and then her daughter died shortly after birth. The Charity aims to bring hope and care to those who have lost children before they had a chance to live.
The Butterfy Memorial area will be a peaceful place, a place for reflection rather than a place of sadness. The main feature will be a memorial wall where families can have their chidren's names engraved. The area will have a peaceful feel to it with lots of seating spread around beautiful flowers and shrubs. The area will attract butterflies to add peace and beauty to the area.
Everyone, whether they have lost a child or not, will enjoy this lovely area. We need to plan the area using a professional designer to ensure that it reaches the relevant statutory rules.

I am the fundraising manager for the Forever Butterfly Charitable Trust. We have been given space within Collett Park to create a Memorial Garden. However we need to re-design the garden to fit the space we have now been provided.
