A six month news round up....

My login was kidnapped by aliens. Where DID the first 6 months of 2009 go?
I know it's June, but we'll start with a look back to our fabulously successful Christmas Carol Concert. It raised around £900 for the neonatal unit and proved a very special evening for everyone involved. Hopefully we'll be back for more this year, better start dusting off the carol sheets...here are some photos:

Quite a few highlights from the last 6 months to tell you about. We're very pleased that Broomwood Hall School in Balham has adopted us as their charity of the year; Samantha and Neil Holloway continue their huge fundraising effort through Agatha's Appeal; New Dad Dylan Wrixon and our CBBC patrons have put together a rugby team to raise money for the unit over the next year (come on The STORKS!); and recently, a brand new incubator has arrived on the unit thanks to the fantastic fundraising efforts of the South Family.

A huge thanks also to all of our intrepid fundraisers who continue to support us through running marathons, climbing mountains, walking great distances and generally putting those of us curled up on the sofa to shame....Darren Hayward ran the Reading Half Marathon, Tim Robinson and friends cycled from London to Paris, Gary Wenn completed the Blackpool Marathon, Gillian Atkins and Manabu Osawa ran the London Marathon, Jason Boswell completed his first Triathlon, and the NNU nurses, parents and friends completed the 72.5 mile Great Glen Walk. Thanks to you all!
