Story
Homerton Neonatal Unit is one of the leading Units who care for babies born extremely preterm in England. We are a 46 cot Unit and one of three regional Perinatal services in North Central/North East London.
We care for babies born from 22 weeks gestation and the smallest babies we care for can weigh less than 500 g (that would be less than a bag of sugar!). We also care for very sick term babies who need intensive care treatment.
Having a baby in the Neonatal Unit is a very difficult time for families. Some stay with us for months and some must travel a very long distance to see their baby as we care for babies across a wider geographical area.
We would like to improve the facilities we offer to our families to make their Neonatal journey that little bit easier.
We constantly look at ways to improve the care we offer and invest in the latest technologies and equipment, beyond what the NHS can provide.
We would be grateful if you would consider donating to our Unit, which will help us support these tiny warriors and their families. Even a small contribution can make a big difference.
