Born Too Soon is a registered charity established in 1985 by parents and staff to offer support to parents who had a baby or babies being cared for on the Neonatal Unit at Kinston Hospital.
With the help of the local community Born Too Soon raises funds to purchase specialist equipment for the courageous babies on our unit as well as providing invaluable information and support to parents and their families.

We would like to help parents to know what they can do to help in the care of their baby and to promote "bonding" with their baby. We would like to offer our services in the form of e-mail communication and please know that if you need some medical jargon explained or if you just feel the need to type all your fears and feelings out there will always be someone available to read your e-mails and to write back to you
