GRIEVING family members will be able to remember lost babies in a new memorial garden opening this week.
People will be able to reflect on the tragedy in the facility at Taunton Deane Crematorium.
The public are invited to attend the opening on Thursday (March 28) of the garden, which will complement, modernise and extend the existing garden.
It will be accessible for everyone to remember a lost child regardless of where they have been laid to rest.
Taunton Deane Mayor Cllr Catherine Herbert will officially open the garden at 2.30pm, followed by the release of doves and a short remembrance service with poems and readings suitable for all.
There will be an opportunity to write personal letters that can be posted in a remembrance postbox and guests will also have the option of planting memorial bulbs.
For more information contact bereavement services manager Kelly James on 01823-284811 or at crematorium@tauntondeane.gov.uk
