I want to raise money to get my hand illustrated and designed book by me (Jodie Smith) printed and gifted to the babies at NICU & MBU's

We're still collecting donations

On the 9th June 2022 we'd raised £130 with 10 supporters in 28 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

I would absolutely love to get this book printed and one day be in every hospital, every mother and baby unit in the country. I believe that reading to your babies and toddlers really does have a great impact on the bond that you have with them and sometimes you just need a little help with that when in difficult or unexpected circumstances. 

I'd like to print 50 copies first, each copy so far costs £45 to print so I need to make £2250 but I'd like to make even more if I can. 

Last year my daughter was born 6 weeks early. She was thankfully okay but had to be monitored in a incubator in the Neonatal unit in Hull for a week or so. 

I then got really poorly mentally and was admitted to the nearest mother and baby unit in the country which was Nottingham where I was diagnosed with bipolar. 

I'm not going to lie it's been a real struggle but I keep going for my beautiful little daughter and family. They are my light. 

I want this book to make others smile for that split second. 

Please help if you can, anything is much appreciated!
