Helping patients and families

William spent the whole of 2020 as an inpatient at the Noah's Ark Children's Hospital for Wales. While there he benefited from the equipment and services that you helped us fund. Read his story here.

Our much loved play specialist service team had to adapt rapidly when the pandemic hit, offering bedside play and additional support to families as they struggled to adjust to the one parent only policy.

We were hugely proud to finally introduce our new emotional support service for NICU in October 2020. The service made an immediate difference to parents going through the most distressing of times.

A sprinkling of happiness and joy is always an essential part of children's hospital life but never more so than in 2020. Read just a few examples of how you helped us to lift the spirits on children and families last year.

During 2020, we provided funding for a training doll and shadow buddies to support children with tracheostomies. Find out how they are helping families like
Brody's.

Thanks to our supporters, we continued to provide little bags of comfort to parents admitted with their children in an emergency. Filled with
things like a change of t-shirt and toothbrush, it contains all the essentials needed to get through those first few days.
