THIS year will be remembered as the time when we all faced lockdown restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic – but 2020 is of added significance to a host of parents across south Essex.
These bundles of joy have brought a ray of sunshine to their families in these difficult times, having been born since the initial Covid-19 outbreak.
We have been asking you to send photos of your newborns – and you did not disappoint.
We would love to see more of your babies during lockdown and you can get involved by completing our online form.
