Wall Of Hope

Well it's been eventful since the photo shoot days.  Natalie and I spent an afternoon going through the photos and made selections ready for the wall...

We have worked out poster sizes to create a college and posters have been designed.

We will be meeting arose soon to look at the final photos and then I will be looking at printing them. 

Exciting times x

Stories will be put in a book for parents to read and there will be a couple of copies.

I want to thank everyone for coming to the photo shoots and for providing a story, I know this has been difficult for a lot of you but your help and thoughts are appreciated and I'm certain new parents will find them to be helpful and hopeful x

Wall Of Hope - North Staffs Nicu

So we had 2 photo shoot days and I took hundreds of photos during those two days.  I was lucky to meet all the special babies and hear a brief insight to their stories...

It touches my heart, and I feel wonderful and hope this wall will help new mums.

It has been difficult to decide on the photos as they were all so good, so Natalie and I sat over coffee arranging them all and deciding on the pics.

The next step is the design of the posters and then a meeting at the hospital to show them all.

 Then it's the printing and the launch.

It's very exciting x

Wall of hope - nicu north staffs - intro

We are creating a Wall of Hope for North Staffs NICU so that parents can see there is hope and a light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm doing this because I met a Wonderful person Natalie Taylor and her daughter Jess who was born at 23 weeks.  The story inspired me so much that early this year I auctioned some photo shoots to raise money.  

And once again in Aug Natalie and I did some more auctions of photos shoots and cakes to raise further funds. 

I took some photos of Jess and her friend Morgan - also a preemie and the photos were so good the hospital staff asked if they could have a photo for their wall.  

Since discussing with them we have since decided to invite other babies and children to have photos taken (photo shoots are happening during Sept). These photos will then be made into posters to create a Wall of Hope for the parents family room to show other peoples stories - to give a little hope to families.

Staff are excited as am I, and the response has been incredible with people travelling to have their pictures taken to be included in the wall.

Please donate and lets raise money for the ward.
