@Nestteam1 have done the first UK neonatal kangaroo cuddle transport today. Both Mum and baby loved it and the family were so grateful to be kept so close 🥰 thanks to the @NNAUK1 and KFF for making this happen. Excited for the future 🦘

Help Bliss to understand where there is most need for families by completing this Equity in Neonatal Care Survey & support development of resources for families and staff x @swneonatal @Blisscharity @LouiseMGould @MckeonCarter @maxinelv @lucieprice24 @RobynAnnable @kread85
Do you have ideas for how neonatal care could delivered differently to make sure all babies, and their families, have an equitable experience? We would love to hear from you! buff.ly/3ytbCTJ
