Honouring baby loss

Knot

At Simba we support families who have lost their baby.

We help those grieving create precious moments to honour their memory.

Where there is darkness, we shine gentle light by making time, giving space and sharing love.

Our Memory Boxes

A Memory Box is often described as a parent’s most treasured possession.

The Memory Box is more than just a box; it is an essential tool to help parents to gather as many memories as they can of the precious time that they spend with their baby.

It allowed me to cry, to hold something tangible when I couldn't hold my baby. 
My Memory Box brought me some relief.”

Knit For Us

Knit for us!

We welcome knitted donations from anywhere in the world! 

Our knitted items are placed lovingly in our Memory Boxes and gifted to grieving families, who gain so much comfort from them.

Support us with a donation

Without fundraising, Simba would simply not be able to provide the support that so many bereaved families need at their critical time of loss. We heavily rely on the kindness and generosity from our incredible supporters throughout the year.
