Work on a new maternity bereavement suite at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King's Lynn will start early next year.  Its fundraising appeal has been restricted by the pandemic, but now the Hospital Trust's own charity has stepped in to help pay for the suite. 

It will mean that grieving parents have a separate place to go away from the maternity ward.

It's hoped the suite will be ready by April 2021.

More than £44,000 had already been raised from donations and now the Trust's charity will contribute £145,000 getting them to the total needed for the build to get underway.

Fundraising for the suite will continue until April 2021 with any additional funds raised going towards 'extras' that will make the suite more homely.
