On behalf of the Hillingdon Hospital Neonatal Unit, The Light of the World Trust has launched an appeal towards the cost of purchasing life saving equipment for premature babies.
If you would like to help these precious infants in their fight for survival, details of how to make a donation can be found on the Donations page.
Thank you for your kindness, compassion and generosity.

The neonatal unit at Hillingdon hospital operates as a level 2 neonatal intensive care. We have a huge intake of patients ranging from 24 weeks premature infants to term infants requiring intensive, high dependency and special care.

The neonatal unit has 8 intensive/high dependency care cots and 12 special care cot capacity. We have a close working relationship with other units in the Region particularly referral for neonatal surgery.

The aim of our neonatal unit is to provide the highest standard of individualised patient care in a warm, relaxed and friendly environment. We actively encourage participation from the parents, siblings and family members in the care of their babies. We have conducted surveys of families who have used our services and these reveal positive feedback that we provide holistic care for the babies and their families.

The increasingly high technology and advances in neonatal field have positively transformed the outcome of neonatal survival rates. However, this has also increased the neonatal budget in terms of purchasing of equipment and the disposables. We would be very grateful for any donation that will help us in the purchase of some of the equipment.

Examples of the cost of the equipment are as follow:

We welcome your support in this worthy cause. Thanking you in anticipation.
