A grieving mum claims council 'jobsworths' are threatening to rip down the fence which surrounds her baby’s grave. Grieving Hollie Bourne from Folkestone, Kent, has been ordered to
take down the little fence around her daughter's grave by August 9. She lost Ava last year. To remember her, they decorated her burial site with ornaments, lights, flowers, candles and
balloons - as well as a little picket fence. She said: "It has had a massive impact on our life. Why should Ava be any different to the other babies? I have spoken to many people who
have said that the baby garden is the most beautiful part of the cemetery because of their fences and decorations." The council ordered Hollie to remove the fence in December. They
eventually took down the grave's border and tributes themselves in March, so Hollie replaced it. READ MORE COUPLE FOUND DEAD TOGETHER IN SWIMMING POOL AFTER DINNER INVITE She said:
"I will do anything in my power to make sure Ava has her fence, however my power alone isn’t strong enough. It would mean the world to us, if we can all come together and show the
council just how many people disagree with their pathetic rules, we’ve got to be able to do something." She said: "When we are up seeing Ava, we bring my four-year-old daughter
with us, who loves being in Ava's garden. We have to make a line next to the other baby next to us so my daughter ‘knows where the middle is’ so she doesn’t step on the other
babies." The council wrote her a letter in response. It read: "We have been made aware that items have been placed on the lawned area of the above grave. We understand that this is
a sensitive matter and that historically some of the older baby graves do have items on the grass that the owners were not asked to remove at the time but you were made aware by the funeral
director before the funeral that this is a new plot and the cemetery regulations would need to be followed. You signed an agreement to this effect and were reminded of this earlier this
year." READ NEXT:
