This bench and it’s tributes left on it contribute to Whitnash town spirit, it makes me and my kids happy to see his little face on that balloon but also breaks my heart to know my friend has lost her baby, this is a bad enough situation without this added stress

Can believe your asking to take this beautiful bench away, that brings joy to everyone! The small minority has spoilt it for everyone else’s enjoyment. It needs to stay and with all its beautiful memories!

I dont understand the thought process behind wanting to remove this. What possible harm is it doing?

It is a disgrace to make this poor family remove everything from the bench. This is a lovely spot for them and everyone else to leave special gifts in memory of there baby Ted. It is not doing any harm to anyone!!!!

Ted’s bench has become a focal point of the community, Ted’s memorial is touching so many people’s lives. Without question the lovely things people leave for Ted should be allowed to stay.

It's such a lovely thing to do for a child that got taken to soon.. to remove it would b cruel, give the family somewhere to come and grieve for the beautiful son/grandchild and nephew..

Teds bench is such a lovely place when we drive past my children always talk about ted and they never met the little hero , this is causing the family more upset and pain which isn’t really needed !
