After delivering her daughter at 32 weeks & spending time on our Neonatal unit, Kate wanted to raise money to help other parents going through similar situations. Kate ran the Manchester 10km after 16 weeks of giving birth & raised over £1000 for our @WWLNeonatal🥰 Thank you💜

@WWLNHS @WWLNeonatal @RainbowWardWWLBabies should only sleep on a surface that is firm and flat so move them to a firm, flat surface such as a cot or Moses basket if they fall asleep in one of these: - ⚜️ Baby bouncer / rocker ⚜️ Hammock ⚜️ Baby swing ⚜️ Beanbag ⚜️ Pod / nest

Missing out on the 600 worldwide #Lego #MRIscanner sets earlier this year has been easily trumped with our @fairybricks donation this year. We are overwhelmed with their generosity! This will make so many kids so happy. The biggest #RainbowWard love goes out to you all. Thankyou!
#RainbowWard @wwlnhs is literally built out of @LEGO_Group #lego. @LDCManchester. We were sad recently to have missed out on a @LEGOfoundation #legoMRIscanner model. We hope to find out where to get one soon! If anyone knows, please let us know! #PIHW #playinhospitalweek
