We’re here today until 4pm at the Co-op Funeralcare in Kendal with our Abi Cooling Cot & their latest Jellycat Raffle. Come along to their open day, and see behind the scenes of their incredible Funeral Home. It’s extremely interesting!

🕯️ BABY LOSS AWARENESS WEEK 2026 🕯️

Back in February I reached out the Kendal Parish Church to see whether we could work together to create a gentle, loving service to mark the end of baby loss awareness week and, the wave of light. This is something that we felt was missing in Kendal.

This will be a gentle service, with infants and children more than welcome. A lovely opportunity to reflect, share and remember. A precious way to honour.

Every family will have the opportunity to have a candle lit should they wish. Candles will be provided upon entry to the service and can be placed by each family. Please arrive from 6.15pm onwards, for a prompt start at 6.30pm.

Thank you 🙏

💜 Chelsea and Christian have now donated 4 Abi Cooling Cots in memory of their son, Romeo Mackenzie Horn, who was stillborn in April 2025 at Furness General Hospital.

💜 Chelsea said “We travelled to Blackpool to officially hand over 2 more Abi Cooling Cots, lovingly donated by Remembering Romeo."

💜 Abi Cooling Cot 3 was donated to Blackpool Victoria Hospital and Abi Cooling Cot 4 was donated to Brian House Children's Hospice, Blackpool.

💜 Chelsea said "It was a privilege to be able to visit both sites as a family to hand over these Abi Cooling Cots and gift families time with their baby. Our kids described Brian House Children’s Hospice as their favourite handover to date. We had the privilege of a tour around the hospice, which is beautiful and meticulously designed to provide the very best for those in their care. Prior to our donation, Brain House Children’s Hospice only had a cooled room, which significantly impacted the time that could be spent with a loved one. The hospice has an upstairs flat to allow families to spend time together and stay over. Families can now have their babies upstairs with them in the flat, instead of the limitation of the cooled room downstairs. I have no doubt both these Abi Cooling Cots will enormously benefit many families along the Flyde Coast and I hope Romeo’s legacy provides families with some comfort in their darkest days."

Wow Wow Wow….

Check out this incredible donation of Charlie Bears that arrived today!

They’re all incredibly beautiful 💙

They’re slowly appearing on our Vinted, and they’re certainly catching attention. One will go away, into hiding temporarily for a top secret plan 🤫

We’re so incredibly grateful for the kindness of this lady that was once a stranger, who’s supported our fundraising by donating numerous times. The community Romeo has built, it’s just outstanding.

It still feels so surreal that we’re over the £30,000 mark and almost at Abi Cooling Cot #10 🤯

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting our dream of making something positive of our heartbreak 💙

All in memory of you… Our Forever Baby Boy Romeo 21.04.2025 💙

Romeo, you will always be our inspiration 💙

Thank you to everyone who came along on Sunday and supported our 7th Nearly New Sale..

The donations for the next event are flowing in, and are currently sat in our holding area for sorting.

We’re taking a step away for the rest of the summer. We’ve barely spent a moment away. Family days are none existent. Christian was made redundant too just weeks after Reggie was born. We’ve taken a significant financial hit because of Remembering Romeo. We dedicate between us an average of 50 hours a week. It is incomprehensible how much time and effort goes into what we’re doing for charity. We do not gain financially in any way shape or form.

Reggie is now 3 months old, and I’ve had just two weeks of that off. I sometimes feel so frustrated because I feel like so few actually realise what goes into it and how consuming it is. It’s the only thing keeping our son alive, when he’s dead.

Imagine how it feels to walk into the hospital in labour excited to meet your baby, to be told moments later he’s died. You go through labour, you give birth, but instead your baby’s stillborn. Deteriorating right before your eyes. Your time limited. You go home., your milk comes in, except you’ve no baby to feed. You wake up to check your baby, your mind and body don’t realise your baby is no longer here. It’s a drag path. You call your family to say you’re at the hospital except it’s not the call they expect, you’ve called them to tell them your babies died. Most would absolutely crumble after experiencing what we have.

I don’t really know the point in this post, I just feel so frustrated and unappreciated at times. We created something to benefit our community and bereaved families in conjunction with one another as an all rounder. I don’t want to give that up, but some days I really do just think… why. Some days I want to throw the towel in.

Today is one of those days. They’re rare but it’s one of those harder days, where I’m probably just better off in bed. I don’t really show my vulnerability often with regards to Romeo, but he was our baby. He was everything we dreamt about, and it was completely and utterly robbed from us.

I wish he was here, because if love could have saved him he’d be immortal. Sunday marked 15 months since I last touched him, tucking him into his coffin to say goodnight one last time.

I miss you so much baby boy. You are our everything 💙

What an INCREDIBLE day!

Wow 😮

Thank you so much to everyone that came along today, helped, bought, shared, donated and everything in between.

Today we raised…. 💥 £3,362.39 💥

Simply incredible considering we weren’t doing a summer another sale until October as I was scared everyone would be on holiday… I don’t know why I was scared!

We’ll be back again in October, I will share the details shortly.

I’m having the rest of the summer holidays off with the kids before we deep dive back into donations. The box will remain open as per, and will be kept on top of by the bar staff on the daily.

It’s actually Aria’s 13th Birthday tomorrow so I’ve had to be super duper organised 😂

Thank you once again….

This takes us over £30,000 to date into funding Abi Cooling Cots, Privacy Prams & Bereavement Jewellery 💃

We’ve lots of exciting things coming up to share so watch this space 🪐

Lots of Love Chelsea, Christian, Aria, Leo, Forever Baby Boy Romeo & Rainbow Reg 💙
