Bluebells on Bunny Hill

Irene is 9 and Alan 7. Lost and lonely in a children’s home they find joy in each other, until the day they are separated. It takes decades for them to find each other again.

When Alan and Irene met in 1959, their connection was instant. The two isolated children aged just seven and nine found warmth and kindness in each other in a children’s home that was unwelcoming and strict. They would steal moments together up on Bunny Hill and talk about their lives. But the home had a rule that boys and girls could not mix. So when their friendship was discovered, a year after they first met, Alan and Irene were separated. It would take four decades for them to find each other again.
