Thank you ITV News for raising awareness of our accommodation campaign, #FamiliesKeptApart , and Natasha for sharing her story so excellently 💙

We know that having a baby in neonatal care can be a lonely experience for parents. It’s also common to feel isolated when taking your baby home from NICU. If you’d like to chat about how you’re feeling, you can speak with one of our Bliss Champions buff.pulse.ly/34bebiirsn

Today we’ve published new research showing that most parents in England must leave their babies overnight as neonatal units don’t routinely provide beds where parents can sleep or rest. Read our latest findings here: tinyurl.com/FamiliesKeptAp… #FamilesKeptApart
