Collab for a Cause

The second ‘Collab for a Cause’ event was a huge success and raised over $70,000!

‘Collab for a Cause’ is a night full of food and fundraising organised by Shannon and Nicole Fleming and the wonderful team at Lot 100 in the Adelaide Hills.

Shannon is the Head Chef at Lot 100 and has lived experience at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital, spending nearly 100 days in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) with his wife and twin girls Isla and Eloise. Heartbreakingly, Isla passed away at four weeks of age after heart surgery.

Twilight Storytime

Once upon a time at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital (WCH) we celebrated World Prematurity Day with our Twilight Storytime!

Staff and volunteers brought in their favourite children’s books to read to families in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Special Care Baby Unit to help parents develop quality relationships with their babies through reading aloud.
