SSNAP was founded in 1982 and has supported the Newborn Care Unit at the John Radcliffe Hospital ever since. The unit can care for up to 56 babies at any one time and is a Level 3 Centre, the most sick and premature babies from across the Thames Valley, are looked after here in Oxford.

When newborns need specialist, often lifesaving, medical care at birth, it can be a traumatic time for parents. SSNAP are here to support families, fund equipment and enable research, we couldn't do this without the support of people who fundraise for us!

Colleagues at the HTA, Liz and Kara, are taking on the challenge of knitting blankets for SSNAP, with an aim of completing 20 blankets in 2023. Please sponsor their knitting by donating here!

All proceeds will be donated to SSNAP as well as the blankets, and blankets will be delivered in batches as and when possible.
