Children Are Butterflies

Children Are Butterflies is now closed.

“As children we were always told by our Grandma that we were not to be afraid of dying. She would take us into the garden and show us the butterflies gently floating in the warm air. She explained to us that when you die you become a butterfly, a delicate creature that is gentle, unique and beautiful.

As we have grown into adults we have told our children the same story and it has now become part of the Hollowell belief that when you die you become a butterfly.

I could think of no better name for the service that we offer to families who have lost a child ~ Children Are Butterflies. ”

Children Are Butterflies is a Northampton based charity. We offer practical and financial support when arranging a funeral that was probably not expected and not planned for, and more importantly, emotional support through an established network of parents and families who have suffered similar losses. It may be a lonely time, but with Children Are Butterflies . . .

“You Are Not Alone”
