World Prematurity Day is observed on 17 November each year to raise awareness of preterm birth and the concerns of preterm babies and their families worldwide. Approximately 15 million babies are born preterm each year. One in ten babies are born too early – more than 27,000 each year in Australia alone.

Giving birth to a child is one of the paramount, most positive experiences in life. Having a baby born too soon can be a significant trauma for families worldwide. Raising awareness of preterm birth is the first step to defeating it. Turosi Giving went along to support those in need and raise awareness in Brisbane and Melbourne.
