6 of Australia’s prem support groups have come together to form a national organisation that will unify, and act as a guiding body for existing prem support groups, help to create new ones, help to improve the treatments and outcomes available for premature infants, and represent the interests of these infants and their families in terms of health policies, funding and standards of care.

These founding groups include 2 of Australia’s longest running and most respected support groups, Preterm Infant’s Parents Association (PIPA) and Nepean Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Parent Support (NNICUPS). The other founding groups include Loddon Mallee Kids (LMK), Lifes Little Treasures (LLT), Little Wonders and Central Coast Premmie & Sick Newborn Support.

Although we have only joined forces in 2007, we have a combined total of 47 years experience in supporting families of premature and sick infants.
