Massive thank you to Team Hizzy for the recent donation to SCBU. It was the 20th year of the 134 mile memorial race for Steve Hislop and they choose SCBU as this years nominated charity. We plan to put the money to good use making the unit even more family friendly ♥️

World prematurity day, raising awareness of the littlest babies born.
The resilience shown by families as they tread their way through an often upside down journey is amazing but often the coping mechanisms kick in and the real emotion and feelings are overlooked.
