Thanks to Cosmic we were able to stay local when my sister was in PICU. The staff are amazing at what the do and just so lovely. Unfortunately my sister is no longer with us but Cosmic will always have a special place in my heart. I did a skydive for them many years ago and it was a bittersweet moment. Well done Cosmic for all that you do. Xxx

I was supported by COSMIC while my son was at St Mary's, you made a very upsetting and difficult time more comfortable and we truly can't thank you enough �

I can't thank st Mary's enough. Although our outcome wasn't the best. And sadly we lost our daughter. For the short time she was in st Mary's care they never failed to support us or my daughter. Their care was outstanding and 6 weeks down the line they are still caring for us with just their support. We will be forever grateful �

Cosmic are awesome and I will love everyone there forever ill never forget how they saved my babies life. I'm so grateful for them and hope they raise the money they need to expand. Xx
