'She needed oxygen and we are so thankful to all the mothers out there who donated milk...to give her the best fighting chance when she was born.'

Sick and premature babies from across the country are able to thrive thanks to donations from generous mothers who donate their breastmilk.

Fermanagh mum Alana Meikle was grateful for the milk that two of her children received when they were both born prematurely. "In the days since she was born I have started to pump and I have just signed up today to become a donor and I just wanted to say thank you, on behalf of Grace my older daughter who also had donor milk three years ago and on behalf of Joy at four days old who has had four days of donor milk, so thank you and please keep going."
