PEEPS
PEEPS (registered charity number 1179495) is a United Kingdom-based nonprofit organisation focused on supporting individuals and families affected by hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE), a neonatal brain injury caused by oxygen deprivation. Founded in 2018 by Sarah Land and her husband Steve, the charity originated from their personal experience following their daughter Heidi’s HIE diagnosis at birth[1][3].
Mission and activities
PEEPS provides emotional, practical, and financial support to families navigating HIE-related challenges. Key initiatives include:
- Information provision: Distribution of parent packs in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), translated resources, and access to peer networks[1][5].
- Peer support: Online forums, counselling services, and community-building events to reduce isolation among affected families[1][2].
- Financial assistance: Funding for specialised equipment, therapy, and adaptive technologies[5].
- Awareness campaigns: Events and educational efforts to increase public understanding of HIE[2].
Governance
The organisation operates under a trustee structure, with six trustees overseeing governance[5]. Activities span the UK, including England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, with 18 regular volunteers supporting operations as of 2024[5].
Impact
PEEPS emphasises early intervention, aiming to connect families with resources during critical periods post-diagnosis. Its work addresses gaps in HIE-specific support, particularly through partnerships with healthcare providers and advocacy for long-term disability management[1][3][5].
