The Charlie Harrison Foundation (UK, xt30081) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

The Charlie Harrison Foundation was set up after our son Charlie died due to complications during labour. On average ten babies are stillborn (die after the 24th week of pregnancy) and seven babies die neonatally (die within the first four weeks of life) every day in the UK. This is higher than almost any other high income country. Around 500 babies die every year in the UK as a result of events during labour when the baby does not get enough oxygen. These are clearly some of the most avoidable deaths of all since, if the babys labour had been managed in a different way, the baby might have lived. The money raised by The Charlie Harrison Foundation will be used to: Provide training for midwives and neo-natal nurses Ensure appropriate support is available for parents Buy specialised equipment Initially we will support the hospitals where Charlie was cared for but eventually we hope to extend this to other hospitals in our area, to national charities that fund research and to international charities that support neonatal care in developing countries.

Problem drug and alcohol use can rob any one of us of our opportunity to live a happy and fulfilling life.  In England alone there are estimated to be a third or a million problem drug users and 1.6 million people with some level of alcohol dependency. Problem drug and alcohol use has many negative consequences for the people directly concerned, their families, friends and colleagues, the communities they live in and society as a whole. In financial terms alone the costs are estimated to amount to £15.3 billion a year to the English economy for drugs and £25.1 billion to the UK economy for alcohol. We help hundreds of people to move away from chaotic states towards stability. We provide the treatment, counselling and guidance that those individuals need in order for them to tackle the root causes. This in turn has a positive impact on the communities around them. We can do more of this with your help.
