1 in every 7 babies born in the UK will need specialist care.

2 of those beautiful babies are now soon to be 5 and 6 years old! Only with the help and support of the NICU/SCBU teams at James Cook and North Tees Hospitals and Bliss!

Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. They rely on donations to fund their work, and without our help they won't be able to reach the 90,000 babies needing neonatal care each year.

Your donation to my page will help Bliss to drive improvements in neonatal care, to ensure that the needs of babies are at the heart of policy and planning for the future, and to provide information and support to all families with a baby born premature or sick.
