Memorial service for bereaved parents to be held at Darent Valley Hospital, Dartford

Darent Valley Hospital will hold a memorial service on Sunday for parents who have lost babies during pregnancy or immediately afterwards.

There will be an opportunity for people to remember their loved ones by lighting a candle and releasing a balloon for him or her, having their names read out and placed on a memorial tree, and inscribed in a memorial book.
