"Take a Breath” is a series where we ask some of the amazing people who work within our FREO2 community to sit with us, take a breath and tell us their stories. We’ll hear all about the passions, heartaches, hopes and fears of our friends who dedicate their lives to bringing breath to others. 


In this current context of Covid-19 accessible oxygen supply is critical. A hypoxic child cannot survive 7 minutes without constant oxygen supply. That’s how quickly a baby’s life is lost and that’s why FREO2 have made it their mission to keep the oxygen flowing, even when the power cuts out
