At the heart of World Prematurity Day is a shared belief that every baby deserves the healthiest possible start, and together we can help make that a reality through research, care, and community support.
We are proud to support three vital research projects that are creating brighter futures for premature babies and their families. These include advancing brain development in preterm babies through DHA supplementation, exploring the impact of folic acid supplementation during later pregnancy, and preventing preterm birth through the Omega-3 Test and Treat Program.
With our research partners and our incredible community, we’re ensuring all babies have the best possible chance to thrive, laying the foundation for future health and development.

When told their baby boy Clancy might not see his brother Albie`s 5th birthday, Alex and Claire decided to bring the celebration forward. It was a chance to create a precious family memory, with Clancy by their side.
The incredible PICU team helped decorate the ward space, bringing the celebration to Clancy’s bedside so the whole family could be together for the special milestone. It`s moments like these, made possible by compassionate care, that mean the world.
Parents Alex and Claire shared, "We are so grateful to the staff in PICU who supported us to have 9 weeks with our beautiful Clancy. It’s not just the medical care, it’s the way they help us to be a family amongst the necessary hospital care.”

We were proud to support the annual Women’s and Children’s Family Gathering, a special event to honour and remember children and babies who have sadly passed away.
In the peaceful setting of Botanic Park, over 150 family members came together to share in music, book readings, family stories, and creative activities.
It was a day of connection, reflection, and mutual support, creating a space for families to feel understood and less alone on their journey. As one attendee shared, “To know you are not alone and that there are other parents that truly understand what you are going through, is so important.” 💛
