We asked, you delivered! We were in need of drawstring bags, so that our breastfeeding parents could keep their consumables together. We put a call-out & we've had hundreds of beautiful hand-made bags sent in. Thanks to all of you who so kindly took the time to do this 😊

We are delighted to let you know that we have reached our fundraising target for the video laryngoscope and have started the procurement process. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this campaign. You really have made a difference.
