This Mini headstone features a sleeping baby in wings,and flowers.

Baby Morgan was born sleeping in June 2011

We are currently not fundraising at this moment in time for Morgan's forever headstone.

But please remember all support helps us to carry on the work we do at Angel Children.









Given to the parents of Samantha and Anthony Mills

This mini headstone features a sleeping baby in wings,flowers and butterfly.

Samantha was born sleeping in June 1995

The little cross her Mum had placed at the graveside had saw better days,so Angel Children supplied this mini headstone to Samantha's mummy.

We also supplied an Identical mini headstone to the same family when Samantha's brother Anthony was born sleeping in November 1995. This family had so much heartache Angel Children had to help.


I hope this gave you a little insight into the work Angel Children carry out, we would like to help more families by giving a free mini headstone to each one but sadly we can not afford to help everyone,as our funds do not permit us to help every bereaved parent that comes to us.
