Cots for Tots

We are the dedicated charity for the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at St Michael’s Hospital.

Change a life this Christmas

Many tiny tots need further treatment at Bristol Children’s Hospital. This Christmas, help us build The Grand Appeal’s Patient Hotel: a life-changing facility for patients and their families.


Initially created in 2010 as a fundraising appeal, our cause received an overwhelming response, quickly bringing together a vast family of fundraisers.

We all share one vision: to ensure every sick or premature baby from across the South West has access to the very best care, 365 days a year.

Whether we are running fundraising campaigns or working in partnership with the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to care for patients, parents, and staff, we strive to make the unit the very best it can be.

The difference you make

St Michael’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

We are proud to work alongside the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

The unit cares for over 800 babies a year, from those born as early as 23 weeks to babies requiring life-saving treatment when they are born full term.

St Michael’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is the only unit in the South West providing the highest level of care to critically ill and premature babies from across the region.

It’s only with your help, we can be there for these patients when they need it most.
