George and Kellye-Marie's NICU Donation

George and Kellye-Marie Pritchard’s daughter Frankie-May was just two days old when she tragically passed away last year.

Wanting to raise as much money as possible for our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) to help other families who find themselves in similar heart-breaking situations, the couple organised a fundraising bingo night raising well over £6,500.

Kellye-Marie said: “She was born in Telford and transferred across to NICU at Royal Stoke where she was looked after so kindly, empathetically and with so much love and care. The nurses and doctors went above and beyond and did everything they could to try to help Frankie-May, but she was so incredibly poorly they couldn’t save her.”

“No one ever thinks they will have to say goodbye to their child and we are completely heartbroken, we have our wonderful memories with Frankie-may and her big sister Rosie and our amazing family that we will cherish forever thanks to the wonderful team in Stoke.”
