Welcome home Lucas Duke!

A big thank you to Chris and Catherine Duke, Daddy and Mummy to NNU graduate Lucas. They asked family and friends to support the charity after Lucas spent a week on the unit earlier this month. You can read Lucas' blog here.

Tell us your stories....

The neonatal unit at St George's is a very special place. Any parent who has seen their baby cared for on the unit will testify to that - and they do. The walls of the unit are lined with stories bearing witness to the incredible journies that babies and their families make. Most of them tell of homecoming, but some are memorials to precious lives that couldn't stay. The short walk along the corridor of the NNU is a humbling and inspirational one and the words and pictures certainly offer hope and courage to families while they are on the unit, and are evidence of the remarkable work that goes on there every day, 365 days a year.

We'd like to share some of those stories via this blog. If you'd like to tell

A big thanks to the Benjamin Weir Trust

We are hugely grateful to The Benjamin Weir Trust for their recent donation of £15,500.

Their generous support has funded the purchase of 2 ophthalmoscopes, 1 asena pump and 1 intensive care monitor. These are critical pieces of equipment on the neonatal intensive care unit - opthalmoscopes are used by doctors to examine babies eyes to screen for a condition called ROP (retinopathy of prematurity); asena pumps help deliver antibiotics and other drugs to our tiny patients; and intensive care monitors keep an eye on a baby's vital signs - their heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen levels.

We are delighted that The Benjamin Weir Trust are continuing their association with us.
