Story

Leo's is a parent-led charity set up to support families in neonatal care in the North East. The charity was launched in 2018 with the sole purpose of providing continued wellbeing support for families during maternity, neonatal and paediatrics.Our charity was set up in memory of Leo, twin brother of Oska, and son of Lottie, our founder. Leo was born at 24 weeks gestation but sadly only lived for four hours.As Lottie said goodbye to Leo in those precious brief moments, she was inspired to turn her love for him into a lasting legacy which would help other families like theirs. We are so proud to carry his name and speak it aloud to so many hundreds of people.Leo's twin brother Oska arrived four days later at 25 weeks and went on to spend 109 days in neonatal care before going home. We provide an array of support including peer support, EMDR to treat PTSD, high level CBT, counselling, and specialised community care.
