Description

Supporting Families

Due to our own personal experiences of neonatal care we understand and empathise with families who find themselves in similar circumstances. Our primary focus is on supporting the whole family, practically and emotionally from admission to the neonatal unit and beyond, working collaboratively with our NHS colleagues and other services. We offer a range of service to families including the provision of:

  • Peer support networks and volunteering opportunities
  • Dedicated support from our family support team
  • Trauma therapy and counselling
  • Online support networks
  • Sensory play and baby massage sessions
  • Community groups
