Croydon University Hospital

Croydon University Hospital

We have been working with the team at Croydon since 2019 and their super enthusiastic team are continually fundraising and participating in events to support their unit.

We have purchased items ranging from milk warmers to privacy screens for breastfeeding to sound ears for noise regulation and reclining chairs for kangaroo care cuddles – the list goes on!

We are delighted to be working with the wonderful & dedicated Neonatal team at Croydon University hospital and would encourage anyone interested in raising funds through us for this neonatal unit to get in touch and discuss how you can get involved - the feeling of having made a tangible difference is simply incredible and very rewarding!

Current Appeals:

The team have requested funding to purchase x2 Neopuffs to help with babies respiration during their stay on the unit when they need some support.

The team have also requested help with the redecorating of their unit and parent areas to make them more family friendly and welcoming. This will include home comforts, soft furnishings and a welcoming environment - that's where we come in!
