✨ Nell & the Neonatal Unit - Family Launch ✨
What started as a simple corridor conversation has grown into something very special.
This weekend, we brought together neonatal families (past and present), staff, and supporters to celebrate the launch of Nell & the Neonatal Unit - an app created to support brothers and sisters of babies who spend time in neonatal care.
There was play, curiosity, laughter, and so many thoughtful conversations. Children explored the app, made nests, dressed up in scrubs, learned about equipment, and asked brilliant questions about the neonatal world.
This project has been a true labour of love over the past few years - shaped by families from the very beginning and built with siblings in mind.
A huge thank you to 💚 SSNAP for sponsoring the event and bringing the Family Launch to life, and to 🏡 Ronald McDonald House Oxford for providing such a warm and welcoming space.
And thank you to every family and staff member who came along to support the day. Your presence meant so much.
Because siblings matter too. 💚
