The rocking horse foundation aims to provide new state of the art medical equipment for the Royal Alexander Children’s Hospital, but they also care deeply about the wellbeing of the patients which is why they strive to provide the most comfortable environment within the hospital. They also support both the Trevor Mann Baby Unit (Royal Sussex County hospital) and the Special Care Baby Unit (Princess Royal Hospital).
It is Rockinghorse’s belief that being in the unfortunate situation that requires a child to be admitted to a hospital shouldn’t stop them from being a child! This is why their goal is to stimulate the passions of the patient in their various hospitals whilst still providing cutting edge care during their stay.
We provided a donation of £500 to the charity to fund the purchase of some lovely new toys for the waiting room toy box at the Royal Alex’s Hospital, allowing the kids to relax a bit more and make the situation a little less stressful.

We at International Biosciences wanted to support such a cause in an age where the internet is expanding faster than ever before, so we have tasked ourselves with raising awareness of the Safer Internet Day (SID) through our social media accounts. We hope to increase the reach of such an important prevalent issue and help those already experiencing it.
