Bebe's Hive offers free sessions using art, music, play, and storytelling to help children explore grief safely and gently. Led by a team of educators, creatives, and wellbeing practitioners; all who knew and loved Bebe. It's a space full of care and hope. Your donation will help us launch: Volunteer training, Safeguarding, Room hire and Resources for our f1st sessions. All funds are ring-fenced via Elsie's Story Charitable Trust and used solely for Bebe's Hive. Thank you for helping Bebe's light shine on."
