We`re proud to partner with a South Australian business whose story connects them personally to the Hospital 💛
Mannix has been keeping South Australian homes comfortable for over 60 years, but their commitment to the community goes far beyond heating and cooling.
Having experienced firsthand the incredible care at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital, Mannix was inspired to support the WCH Foundation.
“As a South Australian business, this hospital touches the lives of our customers, our staff, and our own families. Supporting the Foundation helps ensure other parents and children receive the same care, compassion, and hope that meant so much to our family.”
We’re thrilled to have Mannix standing with us, helping families when they need it most.

Each year, the Infant Development Team (IDT) at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital (WCH) supports around 200 of the Hospital’s most vulnerable and developmentally complex babies, many of whom have experienced lengthy hospital admissions.
“It can be quite challenging providing recommendations to parents, knowing families will have to source these resources themselves and knowing that the most vulnerable families may not have the capacity to do this,” shares Ashleigh, Occupational Therapist at the WCH.
Previously, families received handmade resources like picture cards and sensory toys, but these often had a short lifespan.
We’re proud to help change that, funding personalised Infant Therapy Play Bundles for families to receive after their consult.
“These resources benefit both the patient and their families, and support the patient’s gross motor, fine motor, vision, sensory, social and language development,” Ashleigh explains.
The bundles turn simple moments, like tummy time with a mirror, into powerful opportunities for connection and growth, making a real difference for babies and their families.
