Story

I'm taking part in the December Dip Challenge in aid of the NMH Foundation.

I am a staff midwife on the labour and birthing unit at NMH and I often get to meet these little babies who need to spend some time in our NICU 

This December, up to 750 babies will be born in the The National Maternity Hospital, Holles Street. I am taking a dip to help babies arrive, survive and thrive! Thank you for your support!

This is extra special for me as my god-sister Becky and her Partner Mikey currently have their baby boy Ollie in our NICU who was born 13 weeks early at 27 weeks and is doing amazing thanks to the wonderful care of NMH 💙
