An exciting update on our Christmas Appeal

Late last year the Clifford Craig Foundation set an ambitious fundraising target to help secure 4 new neonatal bedside resuscitation units for the Launceston General Hospital, as part of our annual Christmas Appeal.
We are thrilled to report that we have now raised the required $100,000, thanks to overwhelming support from the community and some very generous last-minute donations!
This appeal has now closed, and we will get to work on ordering these life-saving devices to be used across the LGH Paediatrics Department.
Used during labour and delivery procedures, the ‘Resuscitaire’ as it is known provides the critical components needed for clinical emergencies and resuscitation.
It saves lives, just as they begin.
Your donation will help ensure every baby born at the LGH is given the best start in life.
