The Oliver Fisher Special Care Baby Trust
Health
We would like to refurbish some old accommodation so that our families can stay on site whilst their babies are being cared for on NICU.
About this cause
The Oliver Fisher Trust fundraises for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Medway Hospital. We purchase vital equipment to ensure the survival of premature and sick babies from Medway and further afield. The Unit admits around 1000 babies per year from all over Medway and Swale.
How this cause brings people in the community together
It will provide parents with peace of mind that they will not have to leave their babies for prolonged periods of time during difficult times. At the moment they will commute to the unit from their home address, however this presents problems when babies are unstable or a medical emergency occurs.
