Story

Emily's Star was set up in memory of Emily Elizabeth, Emily was born weighing 4lb 5oz, the clothes which were brought before she was born were all too big so new smaller clothes were needed.

As the charity was formed we knew we wanted to help those parents who find themselves in a similar situation. 

We created Emily's Gift Neonatal Boxes which contain items for both mum & baby.

Each box contains the following:

For Baby

Baby Shampoo - (travel sized) 

Baby Oil - (travel sized)

Baby Wash - (travel sized)Baby Talc - (travel sized)

A small Packet of Wipes

Preemie nappies

A knitted Cardigan & Hat

2x Bonding Squares

Muslin Square

For mum

Shower Gel - (travel sized)

FlannelDeodorant - (travel sized)

Toothpaste - (travel sized)

Toothbrush

Lip Balm

Hand Cream

For Partner

Each of the boxes cost us £32 to create, we do not charge the hospitals or parents for these, we donate each one.

Since 2012 we have donated more than 3,300 boxes.

We currently supply 22 units in England with our boxes these are:
