Hi, I am Sandi Millichip - Massocchi, an accomplished bear artist, designer and avid crafter, with over 40 years experience of making unique products that families can treasure.
I specialise in memory bears, inspired by one of the most precious people in my life; my caring, loving, wonderful Dad. He lived with us for the last 6 years of his life and I was his carer for the last 4 years. It was an honour to look after him and hands down, the best job I’ve ever done, nothing will come close to it.
I wanted a keep sake to remind me of my Dad who, always loved his ties. Having served at Bletchley Park in WW11 he was part of a generation when only a shirt, tie and jacket would do, so of course it made total sense to design the smartest bear in the UK, in his memory.

For all the memory bears and Family Comforts I make I donate 5% of the profit share to charitable causes.
Over the last 12 months, with your help, I have raised over £600 for charities including City Hospice and Hospice of the Valley.
Without the support of City Hospice my family and I would not have been able to provide the home care for my Dad during his last few months. Their support provides an invaluable service to carers in the home.
Charities providing these vital services rely on charitable donations.
It is my aim, with your help to raise as much money as possible for these fantastic causes.
This year sees us expanding our donations charitable to include Noahs Ark & The Not Forgotten Association.
