Human Milk
Bank
 Research shows that sick and premature babies can have their chances of
survival and long term development substantially improved if fed with breast
milk. Milk Banks collect and distribute
breast milk to poorly babies.
Could you be a breast milk donor?
If you have decided to
breastfeed your baby you will know that breast milk is the ideal food. It
is especially important for babies who are sick or premature – like baby
Charlotte. Giving these babies breast milk increases their chances of
survival and helps their long-term development.
For just a few minutes each day to express off
your extra milk will help many babies. The hospital provides sterilised
bottles for you to use and collects the milk direct from your home when
convenient to you. It’s really that simple! 
Every drop really does count, so call today to register as a donor.
