Book of Thanks 2020
The Cygnet Wing, The Maternity Unit, Bedford Hospital
I was contacted early in 2021 by a group of mums, all who had given birth at Bedford hospital during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
They wanted to thank the maternity team for such wonderful experiences on the labour ward during a frightening and uncertain time for new parents. Many of the mothers had to go through labour alone with no birthing partner and were thankful for the support they were given.
I was asked to put together a wonderful commemorative book of thanks containing messages, photographs and my own illustrations to be presented in thanks to the staff at the maternity wing.
This was such an exciting and heart warming project to be involved in. So many positive and thankful messages to the amazing hospital staff who had such an intense year.
I was so happy to be there for the presentation of the book to the maternity staff at Bedford Hospital, we were even joined by one of the 2020 babies!
