Story
On the 23rd of June nine enthusiastic NICU (neonatal intensive care unit) staff including Staff Nurse- Ruth Dawson, Claire Norney, kaylee scothern, lauren Carson consultant Dr Cox , Matron Caroline cowman, Ward clerk Janine Sinclair and DIetician Tim Reid will all be taking on the challenge of completing the National Three Peaks in 24 hours.
The challenge will begin on Saturday morning where we will begin climbing Ben Nevis in Scotland followed by scarfell Pike in England and finally finishing on the Sunday morning in wales on snowdon. It will not be easy and each member will be training hard to ensure the challenge is completed within the 24 hour window. The gruelling challenge will encompass the journey and challenges babies and parent are faced with when a sick or premature baby is born. With many uphill struggles and downward battles which can sometimes seem long but always striving to move forward resulting in a healthy baby being discharged home.
The money raised will be for the nicu endowment fund which is used to better our familys and babies experience on their neonatal journey.
