First Touch supports sick and premature babies cared for at St George’s neonatal unit in SW London. We fund state-of-the-art equipment and specialist staff training which are outside of the scope of NHS budgets, as well as a range of initiatives to support families during their stay on the unit.

Story

Can you help us to help our NNU Milk Bank?

Evidence suggests that for premature babies, breast milk is the most important and effective nutrition that is available.

Due to the lack of storage available for donated milk, generous milk donors are having to be turned away, which is in turn impacting on the amount of expressed breast milk we are able to offer our babies. A new Milk Bank freezer will enable our team to provide better and safer storage for our raw and pasteurised Milk Bank donations.

The NHS Trust will be providing one new freezer and First Touch would really love to be able to provide a second, so that our Milk Bank can help larger numbers of babies. Please help us to make this dream a reality. Any donation, large or small, would be very much appreciated.
