DESCRIPTION

Our personalised memory bear keepsakes are lovingly handmade from your loved one’s clothing. These unique memorial teddy bears offer a comforting way to cherish treasured memories, providing support during times of grief. A thoughtful bereavement gift for grandchildren to remember a grandparent, each custom memory bear is a lasting tribute you can treasure forever.

Each bear comes with a 30 Second voice recorder, which you can use to add a voice recording, favourite song or voicemail from a loved one. A velcro opening is used to insert the voice recorder, which means it can be removed for washing or changing the message. They are really easy to use, just press a button, record your message, then twist the recorder closed to save your message.
