Thank you
Right now in the UK, two babies develop a life-threatening group B Strep infection every day, one baby dies each week and another recovers with long-term disabilities, but your donation can help change this heart-breaking reality.
Evie
Every December, around 60 babies will spend their first Christmas in hospital due to group B Strep infection, but your donation can help change that. Evie spent Christmas Day in neonatal care, relying on oxygen and feeding tubes. Her mum had never heard of group B Strep.
Nicola told us “I should have been at home putting my little girl to bed for Santa to visit. Yet here I was in hospital.”
Many parents, like Evie’s, are unaware of the life-threatening risks of group B Strep. Your support is crucial in raising awareness and supporting essential research to prevent these infections in newborn babies.
By increasing awareness and providing education, your support today will help make sure parents can make informed choices, resulting in healthier outcomes for their babies and fewer group B Strep infections. Together, we can give every baby a healthier start in life.
Thank you from all of us at Group B Strep Support.
