Two of the therapists from the AA five star hotel’s Spa visited the hospital for a few hours to give them a bit of ‘me time’, offering them luxurious complimentary hand and arm massages.

The therapists also gifted special soothing skincare samples for new mums on the ward and for those who may arrive in the coming days.

Simon Miller General Manager of Hand Picked Hotels Jersey, said: “SCBU has been Grand Jersey’s charity of choice for more than four years now and together with our generous guests, we’ve managed to raise over £20,000.

“The charity and the nurses do a fantastic job ensuring parents and babies get that extra special care and this is just a little something our therapists really wanted to do to spoil the mums whose babies are spending this Mother’s Day in hospital and those who are caring for them.”

Commenting on the special treat, Gemma Harries, Secretary of Friends of SCBU said: “We would like to take the opportunity to thank Grand Jersey Hotel & Spa for providing such a lovely treat for the Mums and staff at the Special Care Baby Unit. The support provided in so many way by Grand Jersey is fantastic and we can’t thank them enough!”
