Last year for the first World Childless Week I was approach by a childless friend who was a member of Heart Gallery a colouring group on Facebook. She wanted to help raise awareness and had organised a colouring competition within the group.

The artists specifically drew picture with the heartbreak of being childless not by choice in mind. The competition has taken place again this year and here are a small selection of the entrants. The competition remains open until the end of September when I will have the priviledge of chosing the winners.
