MotherBoard Event: Supporting colleagues through pregnancy loss and baby loss in partnership with Tommy’s Midwives

Around 1 in 4 families in the UK lose their baby during pregnancy or birth, yet stigma and silence often mean that we don’t know what to say or how to support when it happens.

For our next MotherBoard community event, we are privileged to be joined by pregnancy research charity Tommy’s as they cover an often-unspoken part of pregnancy and parental support – pregnancy and baby loss. We will be joined by Tommy’s Midwifery Manager Amina, who will be sharing insights about the impact of pregnancy and baby loss, and how you can support your colleagues, friends and family.

Date: 10th September, 2024

Time: 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM

Where: Online
