Story

Did you know, every six minutes, a newborn baby needs life-saving care?

I saw this first hand when my daughter Ria was born at 23 weeks, and was immediately rushed to the neonatal intensive care unit where doctors battled to save her life. The reality of having a baby born extremely premature is not knowing whether you'll see them alive. This is why Bliss needs your support to help with their work for vulnerable babies.

Please make a gift today so that vulnerable babies, like my Ria, can have the very best start in life.

Thankfully the hospital Ria was born at put parents at the centre of her care. We're the luckiest parents because Ria left hospital before her due date and is now a feisty one-year-old. Bliss works with hospitals across the country so that families are able to properly care for their little ones in hospital, because the evidence shows this helps premature babies grow healthier and stronger.

Help more premature babies and families by making a gift today.

Thank you

Monica

Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. We rely on donations to fund our work but with one baby admitted to neonatal care every five minutes we don’t have the resources to reach every baby who needs us. Your donation can help Bliss ensure every baby gets the best care.
