1 in every 7 babies born in the UK will need neonatal care after they are born. This means every day over 300 babies are being admitted to neonatal units in hospitals all over the country.

Bliss exists to help ensure that every single one of those babies whether they are born premature or full-term but sick, gets the possible care.

Every year, we aim to have 35 runners running from Newcastle to South Shields at the iconic Great North Run to raise money so that our work can continue.
