Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

So......Myself Sam and Rachael have decided to take part in a Sky Dive to raise money for a Charity called Ickle Pickles. As all three of us are in child care and have seen individual children's development, we know how vital it is for a child to recieve all the care they can get to give them that start in life.

 Ickle Pickles are the smallest and sickest babies who need intensive care in Neonatal Units – Whether born too soon or with an illness the NHS cares for over 20,000 ickle pickles every year.

Advances in Neonatal medicine have realised incredible improvements in survival rates - in 1975, half of all babies born weighing less than 1.5kg (3.3 lbs) died. Compare that to today where over 90% of premature babies weighing 800g or more (equivalent to a bag of sugar) survive.

 

Please please help us raise our team target of £300.

Im absolutely bricking it but am determined to push myself to the limit to raise the money we need. Thank you all so much!
