You can also sponsor a square that we knit and leave a little messsage along-side to go to the mother and baby in the NICU ward. You can sponsor a square by purchasing a square on this page! 

- To those on Chelmsford Campus - we'll be at 92 of the SU, so come along and write your message. At the stall, show us your donation reference number and you will be able to sign a tag that will be sent with the bonding square!

- To those who aren't campus - If you are not on campus and would like to leave a message, please include the message you would like to send and your donation reference number in an email to us. We will then write the message for you and will send you an email in return with a picture of your square and your message!
