"Peeps – supporting families, improving lives. Peeps is the only UK charity dedicated to providing unwavering support to individuals and families impacted by H.I.E. (Hypoxic-Ischaemic Encephalopathy) – a condition resulting from oxygen deprivation to an infant's brain, causing potential injury.

Founded in 2018 by Sarah & Steve, inspired by their daughter Heidi, affectionately known as ""Heidi-Peeps,"" born in March 2015. Heidi's journey, marked by an abrupt NICU experience after she stopped breathing at birth, lead to the creation of Peeps.

Through shared experiences and a profound understanding of the challenges families face, Peeps offers comprehensive support. From emotional to practical and financial assistance, we stand alongside families during every step of their journey.

Join us as we strive to make a difference, fostering hope, providing resources, and ensuring no family faces the journey of H.I.E. alone. Together, we can continue to make a difference."
