Donate to our Charity
Not every baby is born happy and healthy. Some are born prematurely, some get incredibly sick when they are born, and some require specialist treatments for specific conditions.
Not every neonatal unit is equipped to manage certain conditions, and this is when the CenTre Neonatal Transport team step in, moving the newborns so that they can have the care they need.
CenTre Neonatal Transport is a neonatal transportation service with ambulances that transport babies to and from hospitals. Based in Castle Donington, they cover the whole of the East midlands (14 hospitals).
The team often have some transfers booked in, but many are on-the-day cases that require urgent attention. The service mostly connects hospitals in the East Midlands, but the team have occasionally ended up as far as London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital when a baby needs highly specialized services!
Your donations will help the team to improve the patient journey and the experience of the parents who travel with them in the ambulance. Little things such as providing a bear (ours is called Miles) can be used as a positioning aid and then become a memento of their journey.
If you would like to donate to our JustGiving page you can do so by clicking here.
We also provide parent packs filled with emergency toiletries and a few thoughtful essentials to help ease the stress of an unexpected move to a another hospital.
If you would like to help us continue providing these packs, you can support us by visiting our Amazon wish list here.
