Noah’s Friends is a family-founded charity created to support babies and families facing neonatal challenges.

 

Inspired by our son Noah Patrick Mulholland Dix, whose time with us was heart-breakingly short but deeply meaningful, this project was born from the love we carry and the comfort we wished we could give. Not just to Noah, but to every baby and parent in need of connection during difficult moments.

​

At the heart of Noah’s Friends is a growing collection of soft, hand-sized woodland characters. Each one a gentle presence, a symbol of hope, and a reminder that no one is ever truly alone. Every friend carries a story, and every story carries love and purpose.

​

But Noah’s Friends is more than toys. It’s a place of warmth, memory, and understanding. Alongside our companions, we raise awareness, share resources, information and supportive guidance for families navigating the uncertainties of neonatal care for long stays in hospital to the quiet aches of separation.

​

Whether you’ve come here to find comfort, offer kindness and support to others or carry Noah’s legacy forward with us -  you are so welcome here.
