I've just sent a second box off to Loving Hands filled with baby hats, cardies, blankets, burial gowns, a tiny crib, gloves, teddies and dolls for children with chemo, etc. Made by my mum, myself and two other friends the knitted, sewn, crafted and crocheted items are going to be disbursed to charities helping people in need. No item is turned away, Lou, the group's founder, is said to be able to find a home for anything. For more info see the forum here:

Crib, mattresses and blankets for babies who don't make it to have a nice place to lie while Mum and Dad say goodbye.
Toys, lap blanket and clothing
crocheted dress and knitted hats by Mum
Dolls with no hair - but cheery hats, for children who lose their hair through cancer
