Children & Families Appeal

This is our major appeal supporting Children & their Families at the Jenny Lind Children's Hospital. Our first target is to increase the amount of accommodation available so that more children staying overnight can have a loved one nearby overnight.

Story

Young children and babies needing treatment overnight at the Jenny Lind Children's Hospital or in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at the N&N Hospital may live many miles away, meaning that parents either need to travel every day to visit their child, or try to stay at the hospital.

Currently, the amount of parental accommodation available is not enough for every parent who needs to stay near their child, so we would like to change that with our Children & Families Appeal.

With your support and help to raise funds, we aim to either build additional parental accommodation on the N&N site, or purchase suitable houses nearby, so that every parent who needs to stay near their child while they are an in-patient at the hospital can do so.

Please help us to improve the lives of Children & Families by making a donation, or by fundraising for this cause.
