The Capella Foundation was set up to increase awareness medical complications during pregnancy, and to directly fund pioneering medical research projects into advanced methods of diagnosis and treatment.

As a small Foundation based in Bristol, 100% of funds raised go directly to the "Twinkle Capella Research Fund". In partnership with St. Michael's Hospital, Bristol University and Oxford University, the Capella Foundation directly funds these pioneering research projects.

My friends Lucy and Mat set up the Capella Foundation having lost a twin during their first pregnancy. This amazing couple have raised over £160,000 so far. 

Please have a look at www.thecapellafoundation.com to find out more about how the money has been used and what has been achieved so far.

Please then donate if you can!
