Help Abby raise money

For participating in 2023 Orange Running Festival

1 in 12 babies are born prematurely...

Glenn & Renee Atkinson's twins, Zoe & Ellie, were born prematurely. The girls started their lives using equipment donated by Running for Premature Babies and they are with us today thanks to the incredible care of Professor Alec Welsh, Maternal Foetal Medicine, at the Royal Hospital for Women, and then after their birth thanks to brilliant staff at the Royal’s NICU and then the Orange hospital Neonatal unit.

Description

Help give premature babies a better chance of survival

Running for Premature Babies is the Partner Charity of the 2023 Orange Running Festival. Recently, thanks to local fundraising efforts, Running for Premature Babies purchased a new 'Baby Leo' Humidicrib, a new Phototherapy Unit and a new Panda Resuscitation for Orange Hospital, as well as a high-tech ventilator for Bathurst Hospital.

Your donations will support Running for Premature Babies to buy life-saving equipment for local hospitals that give critically ill and premature babies a better chance of survival and quality of life.
