We invite you to attend a Shooting Star Children’s Hospices Memory Day. We hope this day will be helpful in providing a safe space to join other families in treasuring your memories and the life of your child. This year we will be holding three memory days, and you can choose to attend whichever one you prefer.When you arrive, we will welcome you with a tea, coffee, shortbread and brownies. You might choose to create a craft in memory of your child or visit our ‘Wall of Love’ where you can place picture cards with a poem or your own words. There will be a short service of remembrance, including a video montage showing photos of your child and song/piece of music of your choice. After the service we will serve a buffet lunch for everyone. If you have not done so before, we would like to offer you a star for the Memory Tree in the Shooting Star House Memory Garden or leaf for the Memory Tree in Christopher’s Memory Garden. This would be engraved with your child’s name and there would be time for you to place this yourself. Or we can engrave a star or leaf for you to choose to keep at home. We invite you to have a page in the Memory Book with a photo and words dedicated to your child. This can either be created by yourself or our volunteer artist. Submitting your informationIn order for the video, star, leaf and Memory Book to be ready for your Memory Day, it is essential that we receive your booking form by Thursday 28th April 2022. You will be sent a link to the booking form in the email confirmation for this event. We are aware that there may be a lot of detail required on the form, and so please do ring us with any questions or for help with this.To be as safe as possible, Memory Day will be held at Shooting Star House, with the opportunity to travel to Christopher’s after the service to visit or hang your child’s leaf in the Memory Garden if you wish to. We are only able to invite parents and siblings. However, if you are attending alone we welcome you to bring a friend or relative to support you. We do hope you are able to attend Memory Day and we look forward to hearing from you.
