Harry and his army!

Not a post about us today, but a post to celebrate all the wonderful people behind our fundraising and cause. There are a few people we would like to thank who behind the scenes have supported us immensely.  

We will start from the beginning of our journey so firstly a huge thanks to Rachel our midwife who delivered Harry...we couldn't have asked for a better midwife to help us through this difficult time, Thank you. 

Thanks to Kate, Heather, Ruth, Donna and the rest of the team at Arrowe Park Hospital for all your care and support. 

Thanks to Kim, who without you we wouldn't have such beautiful photographs of our little boy to cherish.

Thanks to Les who gave Harry a lovely service. To Carol who provided the order of service booklet and blanket and those beautiful memory cards, you went above and beyond what we expected, thank you. 

Thanks to the lovely team at the Co-operative funeral care, Carol, Tom and Adrian for showing sensitivity, care and compassion.

Thanks to the 4Louis charity for supplying our lovely memory box for Harry.

Thanks to Sarah and James who at the early stages of our sad news were there to keep us going with some sort of normality, thanks for showing us some light. Another thanks to James who has helped us set up our blog, website (under construction) and our Harry's logo.

Thanks to Tracy for being there with a friendly face and ear, it means a lot (thanks for the eggs too!).

Thanks to Georgina for the most wonderful necklace and to the Gin Club, a lovely gift!
