Story

New Life Special Care Babies

New Life provides much needed equipment and services to neonatal units across the UK, helping premature and sick babies receive the very best care when they need it most.

THE SPORTathon FUNDRAISING PROJECT: We will be fundraising for a Neonatal Resuscitaire for The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at St Michael’s Hospital in Bristol.

A Neonatal Resuscitaire costs £21k is a specialist piece of equipment used to provide immediate care to newborn babies who need extra help after birth. It provides a warm, safe environment and brings together the essential equipment needed to help a baby breathe, maintain their temperature and stabilise their condition. This can include oxygen, breathing support, suction and monitoring equipment. It is a vital piece of kit for the Unit as it’s particularly important for premature or seriously unwell babies, allowing the neonatal team to respond quickly and provide potentially life-saving care.

Every donation you make will go to the end cause.

SPORTathon DATES:

About the SPORTathon...

Our flagship event, the New Life SPORTathon, brings communities together through sport and offers personal and team challenges. It also gives everyone of all ages and abilities the opportunity to have fun through activity.

There are family fun stalls, children's activities, Entertainment on the Friday evening and a packed day of fun throughout Saturday. The event finishes early Saturday evening with an Awards Event for our 24 Hr SPORTathon fundraising hero's. And not forgetting the Cake Sale, Raffle & Auction! A lot goes on in 24 hours!

Proudly supported by David Lloyd Long Ashton, Bristol.

We could not hold this event without our incredible venue partner, David Lloyd. We are so grateful to them and the DL team who keep the club operating through the night and work together with us to organise the timetable of sport activities and classes adding fun elements to the Agenda! The timetable is amazing!

They also open up to non members, uniting a community so we can raise significant funds.

For several years we have received amazing feedback that this event is enjoyed by so many and we are so excited to bring it to Long Ashton for their inaugural SPORTathon!
