The couple, who lost their son Thomas in December 2015,

Literally, just hearing those words, "There's no heartbeat," it's just

like your entire world is swallowed up in that moment.

He was placed in a special cooled CuddleCot, which allows babies to

Having a CuddleCot, it literally gives you the opportunity

We read to him, I walked around with him, told him

about his older siblings, about his other family members.

We had from Friday evening until Monday tea-time to do that.

That time that you have, you've got that memory that you have

in your heart that will stay with you, in your soul.

Now Mark is preparing to walk along the canal from Leeds to Liverpool

to raise money to buy a CuddleCot which will help other families.

It helps with part of the grieving process.

I'm aiming for three-four, and it's 126 miles.

Not all funeral homes have accessibilty to them,

not all hospitals have the accessibility to provide them.

That's what's driving me, my passion to provide it for people.

He's saying, come on, we can do this.

A year after they lost Thomas, the couple's daughter

She's basically the double of Thomas.

The resemblance is striking, definitely.

It's bittersweet, because you see how you think Thomas would be

And we love her to bits, we love all our children to bits.

Now here's Alex Hamilton with the weather.

Breezy conditions, with those isobars squeezing together.

As we look at the charts tonight, windy at times, those showers

Drier spells in between, but a mild night, lows of seven Celsius.
