My second reason for starting Little Love is that I feel so lucky to have two healthy beautiful boys, I struggle to imagine what it would be like to have a baby without all the first world technology that we have available to us. In 2008 I went to Kenya for the first time and ever since I have held the country and its people close to my heart. I will never forget how speechless I was for the first few days of that trip! Kenya's environmental beauty is second to none, but the people truly captured my heart. I have hosted a number of events over the years since supporting a local charity - GIFT International (https://www.giftinternational.org) - chosen because 100% of funds raised are invested in the African economy and in real African people. After having my own children I felt even more driven to make life a little easier for African mothers and their newborns. Thinking about all the drugs, machines and vaccinations we have to hand made me realize how fortunate we are. In recognition of this, I will be donating at least £1 from every product purchased from my store to GIFT to fund projects in Africa. I’m still working out the finer details of this part of Little Love Blankets at the minute,  but follow me on Instagram and Facebook I will definitely keep you all up to date.
