Welcome to Tiny But Mighty

Supporting families in hospital

Having a premature or poorly baby is something no parent ever prepares for.

Tiny But Mighty

One minute you’re planning for your baby’s arrival, and the next you can find yourself sitting beside an incubator, surrounded by machines, wondering what the next few hours or days might bring.

And while your baby is receiving the care they need, it’s very easy to forget about yourself. That’s where Tiny But Mighty comes in.

We’re a small, Swindon-based not-for-profit organisation supporting families with babies and children in hospital.

We provide the little things that can make a difficult day that bit easier, whether that’s something to eat, a hot drink, fresh toiletries, a change of clothes or simply reminding parents that they’re not alone.

We know we can’t take away the worry or change what’s happening, but we can make sure families feel supported along the way.

Because looking after yourself isn’t selfish, and you can’t pour from an empty cup.

What do we do?

Our work includes keeping the Parent Pantry stocked with food and drinks, providing welcome packs and emergency toiletries for parents, donating clothing and pyjamas for children and making sure families spending special occasions in hospital aren’t forgotten.

Everything we do is made possible by the kindness of people and businesses in our community.
