Mark Clements, Manager of E Sargeant & Son Funeral Directors, and his team have supported the annual ‘Little Angels Remembrance Service’ since it first began three years ago.

Mark said: “The organiser, Madhu, has now created a charity called the Vishaal Foundation, a charitable service whose purpose is to help relieve the suffering and emotional distress of those who have experienced a loss of an infant or child.

Tragically Madhu endured the heart breaking loss of her first born son, Vishaal when he was just a day old.” Each year the service welcomes many attendees to remember, honour and reflect the memory of their little angels. Everyone is invited to light a candle at the Sands Baby Memorial at Slough Cemetery/Crematorium where there is also a collective release of balloons.

Mark continued to say: “E Sargeant & Son are proud to support such a wonderful charity and have donated a memorial stone to complement the existing Sands memorial.”
