Story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

On the 1st of August 2012 Jeffrey Sanders, Delso Da Silva and Mark Pal will be doing a Skydive at Headcorn Airfield in Kent in aid of raising money for The Rockinghorse Charity which supllies funds and equipment to the Trevor Mann Baby Unit.

On the 23rd of July 2009 Alicia and Alfie Da Silva were born.

Our lives changed dramatically when we had our premature twins and we were thrust into life on the Trevor Mann Baby Unit for the next 9 months.

Unfortunately after 13 days we lost our beloved son Alfie,

Alicia was very ill with life threatening problems for many weeks but through the help of the TMBU and Rockinghorse we were finally able to bring our little girl home.

We will never be able thank the hospital and charity enough but we hope that any money raised will in turn be able to help other families.

 

Trevor Mann Baby Unit (TMBU) is based at Brighton's Royal Sussex County Hospitaland is a specialist department for the care of premature and sick newborn babies.

The unit delivers high quality and up-to-date intensive care to newborn babies and supportive care to babies and parents during the stages of recovery.

Rockinghorse has provided vital pieces of life-saving equipment for the TMBU, including specialist incubators and monitors which allow for less invasive and more accurate treatment.

 

So please dig deep and donate now.
