A gentle reminder to you all that the group is back from next Wednesday (11th) February.

We are thrilled to say that all being well, a member of the community team will be joining us…..with their scales (because who doesn’t love hearing how much their baby now weighs 😍)

Looking forward to seeing you all!

I wouldn’t want to risk making your little ones poorly.

It’s coffee and a catch up time…..

We’re back again tomorrow and looking forward to see you and your little ones 😊

Introducing Ollie and his story:

Wheels of Hope - a unique Charity Challenge
On November 15th and 16th, Ollie will embark on a 24-hour charity challenge. He plans to push a specially adapted buggy with an incubator for 24 hours straight, travelling from Poole Hospital to Southampton Hospital and back to Bournemouth — a total of 106 kilometres. The number 24 represents the weeks at which Percy was born, and the journey symbolises the early path he took in life.

Your little one could be part of Ollie's journey:

Engrave Your Baby's Name
Imagine a heart, engraved with your baby's name, accompanying me for an inspiring 24-hour incubator push. Each heart symbolises a unique neonatal journey — a powerful testament to the numerous paths of hope and resilience.

Be Part of the Finale
For those who can join us in person, we invite you to the grand finale at Kings Park, Bournemouth, on November 16th, around 10am. Here, you can personally collect your heart and be part of this heartfelt charity event.

A Moment to Give Back
Before the challenge begins, all the hearts will be photographed together alongside the incubator, creating a collage of hearts and individual stories. Join us in celebrating these incredible journeys and saying thanks to the community that supports them.
Please kindly make a small donation of £5 to the fundraising page, to cover the cost of production and to help us raise vital funds for Ickle Pickles
