The Little Lives Campaign seeks to raise funds for advanced treatment and diagnostic equipment for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), where 300 babies are cared for annually. Babies like Imogen, born at 26 weeks weighing 1lb. 12oz, benefit from new equipment funded by the campaign. The campaign has provided a blood gas analyzer for quick testing, CPAP breathing aids for easier breathing, and state-of-the-art incubators for minimal intrusion. With community support, babies like Daisy and Harry receive faster diagnoses and improved treatment. Thousands of babies, including Kira and Rebecca, benefit from the equipment funded by the Stars Appeal Little Lives Campaign, aiding families in bringing their little ones home sooner. Imogen, who weighed 4lb. 6oz, was able to go home after three months thanks to the campaign supporters.

NICU provides care for 300 babies every year born too sick, too small or too soon
Thanks to the wonderful support of local people and organisations babies are already benefiting from a range of new equipment funded through the campaign….

Helping babies like Daisy to get a quicker diagnosis and more effective treatment!
New CPAP breathing aids help babies breath easier with less intrusion than normal ventilation
State-of-the-art incubators can weigh and x-ray without disturbing baby! Baby Harry, seen here with mum Gemma, stayed in one after being born 7 weeks too soon.....
