16 years ago on the 26th of September, I was born 10 weeks prematurely weighing 4llbs 11 ounces.My mum received a lot of help and support from the NICU team at Nottingham QMC Hospital. One thing my mum didn't have is premature baby clothes as it was unexpected to deliver so early. Premature baby clothes are very expensive, however, through donations made through the NICU helped to provide the tinny hats and cardigans, to fit my body weight that was reduced to of 2llbs.I am now very healthy and strong and sitting my final year at school doing my GCSE. I would like to give back to QMC baby unit and show my support for all the help they have given me.

After a visit to QMC NICU, today to ask them how I could donate the funds I have already raised, I then decided to raise some more money and essentials that are so desperately needed.

Staff asked me if they could take a picture of me now and of what I have achieved with the fundraising, also with a baby photo of me in the NICU so that it gives parents hope.

I will be fundraising donations of money and essentials for one month so please give what you can, anything is well appreciated and every little helps.

Thank you for your support
