The Clarkson Foundation

A huge thank you to The Clarkson Foundation (CLK Foundation) for their generous donation of £6,264 to our Darent Valley Hospital: Little Buds Fund which enabled our Walnut Ward, our special care baby unit, to purchase 8 additional Neopuff machines.

As part of our emergency equipment, these machines support babies with their breathing should they stop breathing or need additional support in a resuscitation situation.

Thank you so much!
