A huge thank you to Brewers decorative centers, in particular the Hastings store. For kindly donating £200 worth of paint and supplies so we can redecorate our parent rooming in rooms and make them more homely for our families whilst they are staying on the unit

Brilliant news for all our families

We're delighted that Tesco and Pampers have partnered to give free nappies to parents of premature babies.

Around 60% of twin pregnancies result in birth before 37 weeks (spontaneous or induced) and around 75% of triplet pregnancies before 35 weeks.

The nappies are available from all Tesco Pharmacies.

Parents and carers, we know how exhausting and lonely crying can feel. 🤗

Remember:
✨ Crying is normal
✨ You are not a bad parent
✨ It’s OK to step away for a few minutes if your baby is safe
✨ Looking after your mental health matters

Keep your baby safe, and keep yourself safe too. 🕊️

An update from Eastbourne breast mates 💜

💜 An Update from Eastbourne Breast Mates 💜

We’re sad to share that we’ll be closing Eastbourne Breast Mates and our last session will be on Monday 15th September. This hasn’t been an easy decision, but it allows us to prioritise our limited funding towards what’s most needed right now – home visits from our Lactation Consultants, giving families personalised support in those crucial early days.

We know that Eastbourne families are still well supported, with wonderful options through the NHS groups and , so no one will be left without a place to turn.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of Breast Mates in Eastbourne 💜
