Welcome to Noah's Ark Children's Hospital Charity

We support the Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospital for Wales in providing world class care, helping to ensure the best outcome and experience possible for children and their families.

Having raised more than £20 million to build and equip the hospital, today we continue to work hand in hand with the NHS, providing funding for the most up to date equipment and facilities. We also fund support services for families like the play specialist team, who help children be children, despite the difficulties they are facing.

As part of our ongoing commitment to helping ensure the best specialist care possible for children, we recently launched our Tiny Lives Appeal with the aim of raising £1 million for the neonatal unit at the University Hospital of Wales.

Along our Tiny Lives journey we’ve been privileged to work with many parents whose babies were born prematurely or very unwell.
Each family’s story is unique to them but what runs through them all is how overwhelming, frightening and heart-breaking being a neonatal parent can be.
It’s for this reasons that we’re particularly proud to announce the last phase of the Tiny Lives Appeal to take us up to our £1m target.

There are only weeks to go until the end of our Tiny Lives Appeal and with your support we’re hopeful that we’ll reach our £1million target. The remaining money we hope to raise by Christmas will fund the provision of a new emotional support service for parents on the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
The service will help families to process the trauma of their experiences and hopefully reduce the prospect of long term damage to their emotional wellbeing.
This video, put together with the kind help of some of our wonderful Tiny Lives parents, explains just a bit of what it’s like to be in this situation.
Please watch it and pledge your support to these families by visiting our appeal page here.
