Babies born at York Hospital this weekend are in for a special surprise. York midwife Sue Cowley has been busy preparing Coronation Day packages for newborns, which include a hand-knitted crown! The bundles will also be equipped with newborn vests, designed by Sue's daughter Iona, Coronation Day chocolates, and a Union flag bag.
Sue has been a midwife for almost 40 years and knits hats all year round for the ward, including Christmas ones for the festive season. She said: "I have made 12 sets ready for Saturday - I hope we are not any busier!”
