Story
The Newborns in Need Appeal is a charitable fund supporting some of the most vulnerable and poorly babies at the Heart of England NHS Trust, including Good Hope and Heartlands Hospitals.
Each year the Trust cares for over 1,000 babies, some of whom are born more than four months early and weigh as little as one pound. An average of one in ten babies born in the Trust needs the support of our neonatal units, and as we provide the highest level of care for the most premature and most sick babies, the unit also takes babies from across the whole region. The neonatal units provide 24 hour care using dedicated breathing machines, incubators, and sophisticated monitoring equipment.
As the techniques in medical care advance, more and more of our babies survive and enjoy a better chance in life. The Appeal’s aim is to match these advances with financial support beyond the limits of NHS funding to ensure the very latest equipment is available for the patients who need it most.
