Capricorn Financial and Smartr365 is doing an organised Charity Walk on the 16th of May 2018 to support a good cause - the Neonatal unit in Queen Charlotte's and Chelsea Hospital.

The Neonatal Unit, Queen Charlotte’s and Chelsea Hospital

The Queen Charlotte’s and Chelsea Hospital neonatal unit is based on the Hammersmith Hospital campus. It cares for over 500 babies a year, including some of the smallest, sickest and most fragile babies born in the UK. The unit offers specialised intensive care for babies with many problems including those born with brain injury or abnormalities and babies born following complications in twin and higher order multiple pregnancies.

Care can be provided for up to 32 babies at a time.

The unit is also home to a milk bank holding donated breast milk which is used for some premature babies.

The unit has its own MR scanner.

The neonatal unit has nine parent bedrooms with en-suite facilities and two family sitting rooms, both with sofas, TVs and one with a PC with internet. There is also a specialist bereavement room for families to spend precious time with their babies, created by the Winnicott Foundation in 2013.
