Get involved

We rely on the generosity of people across the East Midlands to help fund our care. From donating and fundraising to volunteering, taking part in an event or supporting one of our shops, there are so many ways to help.

Families like Lily’s need expert care and support when every moment matters.

At Rainbows, we are committed to supporting families wherever they need us. Our specialist Rainbows nurses work in local hospitals across the East Midlands, helping families make precious memories and ensuring babies, children and young people with shorter lives receive the best possible care.

Lily had Neonatal Epilepsy and died at just under six-weeks-old. Our Rainbows Nurse was there to support her family through the most difficult time.

With your support, we can be there for families from the very beginning and ensure families are not alone during the most difficult time.
