Baby Lifeline

About Baby Lifeline Baby Lifeline is a unique national charity which promotes the safe care of pregnant women and newborn babies all over the UK and worldwide. It does this by supporting and working with NHS professionals – buying equipment, developing and providing critical training, and conducting research. Recognised as one of the UK’s leading mother and newborn baby charities Baby Lifeline was founded nearly forty years ago by Judy Ledger, after the tragic loss of her first three babies – sadly born too small to survive. The goal of the charity is to give every mother and baby the best outcome possible. As a registered nurse, Judy recognised that this was only possible by supporting those who care for them with training, equipment, and knowledge through research. The charity has attracted the support of leading figures from the health service who sit on the charity’s advisory panel and A-list celebrities who fulfil the roles of Patrons – all united in their shared goal of making maternity care in the UK as safe as possible.
