Knitted with Kindness

We were deeply moved when Christchurch Women’s Hospital reached out for blankets and clothes for babies and families in need.

Our community responded quickly, donating handmade items created with care and kindness.

When we delivered the gifts, a nurse named Mary shared how meaningful these donations are. Tiny knitted teddies are given to new mums, children in hospital, and parents grieving the loss of a baby, sometimes accompanying a baby on their final 
journey.

Hearing this stayed with us. 

Heartfelt and meaningful 

Inspired, our staff began knitting teddies of their own.

Over the months, we returned to the hospital with more handmade gifts, each one carrying comfort, love, and connection during some of life’s most difficult moments.

Thank you to everyone who helped turn a simple act of kindness into something truly meaningful.
