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.

A special thanks to BBC Radio Leicester for allowing me to capture the elevated view of the square.
