Cuddle Cots

Cuddle cots are designed to give grieving families the gift of time. From the Cuddle Cot website: "Providing grieving families time through the use of the CuddleCot is internationally encouraged by midwives, bereavement practitioners and academics. Time allows the family to form an important bond with their baby and helps them in dealing with their loss. Cooling the baby is absolutely essential and this is where the CuddleCot comes in. The CuddleCot cools to an ideal temperature for preserving baby without being too cold for the parents. In use in thousands of hospitals across the world, the CuddleCot allows the family to spend precious time with their baby."

In our experience, a cuddle cot was mentioned to us, but we did not have access to one. The Lavender Project wants to ensure any family that wants one will have access to one.
