Description

Amanda Bowles knew that she was always destined for leadership and helping others. However, it wasn’t until she gave birth to her stillborn son, Jesse, that she realised her true calling. Following Jesse’s death, Amanda received a stuffed bear from Toni Watson, a mum who had also had stillborn children. Through this simple gift of kindness, Toni and Amanda became friends. Together, they founded Bears of Hope, a charity that provides support to grieving families following stillbirth.
