In the late 1980s, baby Anthony spent two years at the Tweddle Baby Hospital while his mum Mary received health care elsewhere. Mary always dreamed of helping other mothers facing adversity, and decades later, her wish became reality.
When Mary passed away recently, her family created a fundraiser through Tweddle’s GiveNow platform, raising nearly $18,000 from over 60 donors in her honour.
While organising the tribute, we unearthed a photo of toddler Anthony in Tweddle’s 1987 Annual Report, and incredibly, was able to reconnect him with Karen, the caring Mothercraft Nurse who looked after him all those years ago. She still works for Tweddle today!
Thank you to the family and everyone who contributed to this beautiful tribute, your generosity will continue helping parents and babies build safe and secure foundations. 💛
