Help keep sick kids warm this winter

Wellington Hospitals Foundation has launched its annual Jammies in June Appeal to support tamariki cared for at Te Wao Nui children’s hospital, as well as Kenepuru and Hutt Hospitals.

By donating online, you’ll help us buy cosy new PJs in the right sizes as children are seen in our hospitals over the next few months.

Respiratory illnesses are a major reason children are admitted to hospital in winter, with many arriving without pyjamas. Cold, damp homes make young kids even more vulnerable, but staying warm helps their immune systems fight off infection.

Let’s wrap sick kids in warmth, comfort and care this winter! Thank you.
