We are refreshing the inspiring patient stories that are currently displayed on the walls of our Neonatal Unit at Leeds General Infirmary and St James’s University Hospital.
Since 2023 the ‘Corridors of Courage’ project, supported by Leeds Hospitals Charity, has transformed the entrance to our Neonatal Unit with inspiring stories showing how far some of our smallest patients have come since their time on the unit. Corridors of Courage was designed to bring comfort and hope to families whilst also brightening up the entrance to our Neonatal Units.
In 2027 we are refreshing the project as ‘Wall’s of Courage’ and will add new patient stories so that these displays can continue to bring comfort and hope to parents and families as they come and go from the Neonatal Unit. Wall’s of Courage has been made possible with the support of Leeds Hospitals Charity.
Share your child’s story
If your child has been cared for on the Neonatal Unit in recent years and has not previously been featured in Corridors of Courage or in our Book of Courage, we would love to hear from you!
To submit a patient story you will need:
- A photo of your child from their time on the Neonatal Unit.
- A recent photo of your child (any age) that shows how far they have come. This could be a milestone like first day of school, or just a nice picture that you’re happy share.
- Your child’s gestational age and/or diagnosis
Your child’s story will be displayed on the refreshed Walls of Courage at either Leeds General Infirmary, St James’s University Hospital or in our Book of Courage which will be available for families on the Neonatal Unit to see.
