Congenital heart disease is one of the biggest killers of infants. Every 2 hours a baby is born with a serious heart defect. Our specialist training means that now more than half of them are picked up during pregnancy. This is why Tiny Tickers exists; to give babies a better start in life.

Story

We are raising money for a charity that saved our little boys life without the training Tiny tickers provide Donal’s heart condition may have been missed.

At our 20week scan, with the support and training from Tiny Tickers our sonography detected his very complex heart condition. If this wasn’t spotted, the harsh reality, is he may not be here today.

Moving to AlderHey and going through his operation was tough on us all but our little champion has and come out other side and can ‘lead a normal life’

That said we would like to give back!

We are eternally greatful to them, our family owes everything to them. We are so proud to donate and raise awareness for such a great cause ❤️

A baby is born with a serious heart condition every two hours in the UK and despite congenital heart disease being one of the biggest killers of infants, only around half of congenital heart defects are picked up during routine prenatal scanning.

With your help we can provide a safety net for the 1,000 babies each year that leave hospital with their heart defect undetected, increasing detection rates, improving a baby’s chances of survival and long-term quality of life.
