Ickle Pickles Hampshire Incubator Ball

The Ickle Pickles Hampshire Incubator Ball was a night to remember, filled with elegance, heartfelt stories, and a shared mission to support sick and premature babies across Hampshire. 

A Night of Glamour and Generosity

With a welcome drink in hand, attendees mingled and shared their own neonatal experiences, including a sneak peek at the Wheels of Hope - 24-hour Incubator Push. The two-course dinner that followed was both delicious and delightful, setting the stage for a night full of entertainment.

A Celebration of Support 

The energy of the evening was supercharged by the live band that kept everyone on their feet, dancing and laughing. A highlight for many was the 360-degree photo booth, which provided unique and fun videos to make Instagram and Facebook posts fly! 

Raising Funds for a Vital Cause

The heart of the event was, without a doubt, the incredible efforts of everyone involved. We are thrilled to announce that funds raised on the night were £9,231. This was largely due to the enthusiastic participation in our silent auction, which was a great success.

With the proceeds, we will support the Southampton and Oxfordshire Neonatal Transport Service (SONET), a critical service responsible for transporting sick babies across Hampshire, and the neonatal units at Portsmouth and Southampton Hospitals, ensuring that tiny babies receive the essential care they need.

The 2026 event is already in the diary, with expansive plans to welcome more guests to an even more spectacular fundraising event - we are simply buzzing about the potential to make an even greater impact.

Gratitude and Acknowledgements

The success of the Hampshire Incubator Ball was made possible by the incredible generosity of our supporters. We extend a heartfelt thank you to all who attended, performed, volunteered and donated. 

A special mention goes to those who donated prizes for the incubator prize draw and silent auction, with particular thanks to Howden Insurance for sponsoring the incubator draw. Plaudits also to Blitz Photography and Nikki Terra Photography for capturing the essence of the evening through their lenses.

Together, we make a difference to the lives of sick and premature babies, proving that even the smallest among us are mighty indeed.

Reserve your spot for the London Incubator Ball on the 13th of March for another unforgettable night.
