Ami's Gift

To honour her legacy “Ami’s Gift” will provide bespoke bereavement training and resources for anyone working within the childcare industry. This training will be held every year in September, starting 2025.

This year Winston's Wish provided training on 3 occasions to teachers and support workers, classes with a maximum of 30 were held both in Wrington and Stanton Drew. Individuals attending the training were then provided with resources that they had chosen during that day. Over 35 schools attended the training. Resources provided came recommended from Winston's Wish and came in the form of books that both the children and care workers could work from, these books covered a range of ages and abilities, and especially schools with children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

This initiative would include a representative from The Harvey Hext Trust attending on such dates to bring awareness of bespoke, durable and personalised memory boxes and beautiful memory bears available to bereaved children.

We propose to hold funded training every year in September and provide resources to anyone working within the childcare industry.

Set up in memory of Chew Valley resident Ami Millard, whose dedication and commitment to her children was unsurpassed.
