We help premature and sick babies in the UK to give every baby the best possible future

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am running to raise money for Bliss as a big thank you for all the work they do for premature babies. My twin boys Harvey & Myles were born 10 weeks premature, each weighing only 2lb 11oz. Thanks to the fantastic care they received at the Nunsthorpe SCBU, they have both grown up into healthy 11 year olds.

Around 17,000 prem babies need intensive care every year. Adults & children receive intensive care on a one to one basis, but prem babies don't receive this in many cases due to the shortage of trained neonatal nurses. 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: BLISS gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!

Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. We rely on donations to fund our work but with one baby admitted to neonatal care every five minutes we don’t have the resources to reach every baby who needs us. Your donation can help Bliss ensure every baby gets the best care.
