Our ladies have been making baby quilts for the Neonatal Unit at East Surrey Hospital. These quilts are used in the incubators of this special care unit for the babies to lay on and add a touch of home comfort and colour in a sterile environment. All the quilts are made of 100% cotton to withstand the rigours of frequent washing at high temperatures.
The staff
at the National Unit on East Surrey Hospital were delighted to receive our
quilts. They Care for around 450 babies a year. Some are only there for a few hours,
while others stay for weeks or months until they can go home.
Due to
the constant washing and parents being able to take them home if they wish, the
unit are on continual need of these quilts.
