Wiltshire volunteer Hazel Bush honored for knitting trauma dolls from leftover wool to comfort children in crisis.
Hazel Bush, a Wiltshire volunteer, has been honored by Wiltshire Police for knitting handmade "trauma dolls" to comfort children affected by events like road accidents and domestic abuse.
Since starting over a year ago, she has created safe, no-small-parts toys—including police officers, firefighters, ballerinas, and Smurfs—using leftover wool.
Inspired by her great-niece, a police control room worker, the dolls are used by officers to support children and boost staff morale.
Bush’s initiative reflects a grassroots effort to provide emotional care through simple, thoughtful gestures.
