We don’t have a ready-made box of different packages labelled with a price tag. We prefer to chat with you to discover exactly what you would like to get out of our relationship.

The heart of our charity

“All the consultants in the neonatal unit said repeatedly, ‘early intervention is key’ which is why we feel so strongly that all children like Jothi need access to support like we have with Dame Vera Lynn Children’s Charity.”

– Jothi’s Mum, Kate

Born by emergency c-section at 32 weeks, Jothi spent his first 24 hours on a ventilator and the first 93 days of his life in the neonatal intensive care unit. His personal growth since coming to DVLCC is remarkable.

“I don’t think there’s another service that compares. We feel so lucky to be able to access it. You can tell that the staff really want to help and want Elsie to do well. It’s just so nice to have another cheerleader.”

– Elsie’s mum, Debi

Born at 23 weeks and 5 days, Elsie’s prematurity meant that her development was considerably delayed. With so many unknowns, Elsie’s parents weren’t sure what her future would look like until they came to DVLCC.

“Since Freddie has started at the charity I have been blown away by the friendliness and understanding of all the staff. I suddenly feel like our journey is not different and we are so included!”

– Freddie’s mum, Anna

Freddie was diagnosed with Galloway-Mowat Syndrome, a rare life-limiting disorder. Since starting at DVLCC, Freddie has begun to learn new skills and is making great progress.
