Being a mum and an auntie of a baby who has passed away, something like flowers and tributes are a little bit of something to comfort these families. Please dont make these families remove them.

This is disgusting behaviour of the whitnash counsellors the bench is a reflect of love and loss combo ed with children of whitnash your next generation supporting and caring fir a bench on whicb baby ted is remembered by its beautiful clean well kept which is more than can be said for some areas of whitnash the bench can still be used to sit on it's not like it's covered and nowhere to sit think on use your time to sort out what needs to be sorted in whitnash and leave this memory corner alone shame on the people who called the council in the first place nothing better to do

If it’s the one place they go to mourn their son on his birthday they should be able to place items there. Put your place in their shoes, understand how they are feeling in this time. It is not right to agree to a bench in honour of their child but not allow them the right to place a balloon. It should be a place of pride, honouring a child’s short life. Not become a horrible dispute. Let them place items at their own risk. Allow the flowers. Allow your town to know you understand the loss of a child even if you haven’t experienced it personally. If it people placed flowers at a war memorial or other monuments, this should be a non issue. This is just my opinion not everyone will agree with me.

Whoever has complained needs to quickstep to the hospital to check for signs of a heart! Surely at special times of the year this should be allowed?!?!

Why would the council want to remove it? What harm is it doing anyone? I drive past the bench everyday and think how lovely it is!!
