"When robins appear, loved ones are near" Following the success of 2018`s Forget Me Knott appeal [ see : https://youtu.be/4Pg3VLBkmFI ], The LOROS hospice returned to Jubilee Square in Leicester with a memory garden featuring a number of 14cm high hand crafted steel robins for visitors to buy in memory of a loved one who has passed. The limited edition LOROS Robin is the second collectible in the ‘Always Remembered' LOROS collection. The beautiful Memory Garden has been brought to life by Coles Nurseries and East Midlands Landscaping and the headline sponsor is Upton Steel. In this film we take a tour of the garden and try to spot some of the 20+ Robins that call it their home, how many can you spot, listen carefully they are calling to you ! (Please Note: The LOROS, Robin collectible does not make sound). If you wish to purchase a Robin details etc can be found on the LOROS website at the link below. https://www.loros.co.uk/support-us/events/2019/09/02/the-lor...

During July 2018 Leicester Hospice LOROS brought a sea of colour to Jubilee Square in the city with limited edition wrought iron Forget Me Not flowers filling the grassed areas of the square. Available for purchase each flower symbolises the life of a loved one who is no longer with us. Due to a hot spell of weather the grass below the flowers was not its usual green but that didn`t distract from the spectacular display of light blue glossy flowers as they caught the suns rays. As I wondered through them the stories and memories of those people the flowers symbolised could be heard drifting across the square, making for a reflective but not sad atmosphere. The money raised from the Forget Me Not sales will go to fund the valuable work at LOROS, offering important support for local people and their loved ones who are living with terminal illness. for more information on the work of LOROS please visit www.loros.co.uk A special thanks to BBC Radio Leicester for allowing me to cap...
