This month Edspire is dedicating a post a day to prematurity.
November is World Prematurity Awareness Month and people and organisations from all over the world are coming together to help babies born too soon and to raise awareness of the affects premature birth has on babies, mummies and their families.
The charity Bliss as part of The World Prematurity Network are calling us all to action on World Prematurity Day for the 15 million babies born too soon in the world each year.
Around the globe each year 15 million babies are born too soon, sadly around 1 million of these babies will not survive.
In 2008 the idea came about to raise awareness of the serious issues that these babies and their families face and since then the day has gained more and more support and each year has gone from strength to strength.
Bliss is a member of The World Prematurity Network, which includes consumer and parent groups that are leaders in addressing preterm birth in their countries. Through joint efforts including World Prematurity Day on November 17, members call for actions to prevent preterm birth and improve care for babies born preterm.
Here at Edspire we have answered the call and encouraged a wide range of companies to also come along and take part.
Here is what you can expect on the blog this November for World Prematurity Awareness Month.
