Story
1 in every 7 babies born in the UK will need specialist care.
Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. They rely on donations to fund their work, and without our help they won't be able to reach the 90,000 babies needing neonatal care each year.
In 2022 our son Sebastian was born prematurely at 29 weeks. We found the information on the Bliss website invaluable during his first year. From what to expect during the first days in hospital, to feeding a premature baby, reading about procedures such as eye tests and blood transfusions and finally to taking him home on oxygen. The money raised will really help to keep the information up to date as well as improving the neonatal care.
Your donation to my page will help Bliss to drive improvements in neonatal care, to ensure that the needs of babies are at the heart of policy and planning for the future, and to provide information and support to all families with a baby born premature or sick.
