We fund specialist equipment, patient services and comforts, clinical care, local research and training so that our maternity and gynaecology teams can offer the best possible outcomes for babies and mums in the Central Lancashire and Chorley area. With the charity’s support, our neonatal unit continues to provide exceptional care for premature and sick babies and their families from across Lancashire and South Cumbria.
What We Fund
Thanks to our incredible supporters we’ve been able to fund many charitable projects that have helped to provide the very best care, treatment and facilities to mums and their babies at our hospitals. Take a look at some of our recently funded projects to see the difference this has made.

The Baby Beat team are delighted to announce that, thanks to the wonderful support of our donors, fundraisers and volunteers, we have funded a project to help enhance the care provided to mothers who experience multiple pregnancies here at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust 🙌🤰👶👶
The Maternity Engagement Project is being undertaken by our maternity teams in partnership with the Twins Trust, to improve compliance with the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance for twins and triplets. The adoption of this guidance for multiple pregnancies has proven to not only be a sign of good practice, but has also shown to reduce still-births, neonatal admissions and deaths, and emergency C-section rates. Achieving the standard will help the team build on their current antenatal care practices and ensure women with multiple pregnancies receive the best and safest quality care throughout the whole of their pregnancy.
Baby Beat have funded this year-long project at a cost of just over £8,000, and we are looking forward to supporting the already wonderful care our maternity colleagues provide, so that mums in our area who are expecting twins and triplets receive the specialist antenatal care and interventions needed to ensure the best possible outcomes for their babies 🧡
Thank you so much to all of our fantastic supporters who made this possible! You can read more detail about the project, here on our website 👉 bit.ly/3aoCCu1
That’s wonderful news, my twins received such good care in the neonatal unit at Preston but I know the extra risks that come with a multiple birth and it was always a worry during pregnancy
Thank you so much to Patti Barrow, and all involved in her charity 70's night a few weeks ago, for their kind support of Baby Beat - the night raised a wonderful £1,500 in ticket sales 🧡
Patti organised the event at Chorley's Cunliffe Hall in loving memory of her granddaughter, Cassidy Rae Cudworth, who was born sleeping in October last year 🙏
To add to the amount raised, the venue was kindly donated free of charge by members of the masonic lodge that use the hall as a base, and Worshipful Brother Malcolm Schofield added a £50 donation. Well done to everyone involved in raising this fantastic total, and a huge thanks for choosing to support Baby Beat in Cassidy's memory - the funds raised will help make a great difference for the babies and mums cared for on our wards here at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust 🙌

We'd like to give a huge well done and THANK YOU to our fab radiology colleagues here at @lancshospitals 🥰👏
Magda Borkowska, Hemant Sonwalkar, Sid Wuppalapati, Nav Subedi, John Sammut and Arun Kumar took on Preston's 21 mile Guild Wheel circuit to raise much needed funds for us. They were supported by colleagues, and have so far raised a wonderful amount in support of the babies, mums, and mums-to-be cared for here on our wards and clinics - over £880 so far! 🙌🧡
Well done to all of you on your challenge, and thanks again for choosing to support Baby Beat with your run. It really will make such a difference! ☺️
