In memory of Daniel Ellender
Heartlands and Good Hope Hospital Charity are fundraising for a Family Integrated Care Scheme across the Neonatal and Special Care Baby Units to help parents and families to be more involved in their baby's care from the very start of their journey.

Story

Every year, Heartlands and Good Hope Hospital help to bring over 11,000 babies into the world. On average, around 1,000 of those babies will be born too poorly or too soon and will be admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Special Care Baby Units at the hospitals. One of these babies was Daniel James Ellender, the lovely baby boy of our friends, Julia and Micheal Ellender. We are fundraising to help to provide a provide a Family Integrated Care Scheme at Heartlands and Good Hope Hospital that will be vital in helping parents and siblings to be a part of every step of the Neonatal journey. With your support, the hospital charity can fund a special Family Integrated Care Nurse who will be responsible for encouraging parents to cuddle, feed, change and even administer some of the more basic medications to their baby.  We are hoping to raise money in Daniel's memory and show our love for the whole Ellender family.
