Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
After my baby arriving 11 weeks early, i know only too well the stresses, strains and financal pressures being in NICU can cause.
We have set up our not for profit to generate care packages for parents who like us, end up staying in hospital with their poorly or premature babies.
Your donation will fund the nice to have’s that parents just don‘t allow themselves whilst facing this journey. The basics of a hot drink, or something to eat. We are here to remind them, self care isn’t selfish.
Each care package costs around £15 to make. Our emergency overnight bags cost £6.
We also aim to keep the parent pantry fully stocked with food to help relieve some of the finanical pressures.
Any left over funds will supoort the ward with dorect donations including.
Preemie Dummies. Breastfeeding aids. Arts and crafts for mother & baby bonding. Puzzle books. Baby books. NICU Journals.
Your donation is very kind and we would like to thank everyone who has supported us so far.
