What a way to celebrate IWD 2024! Our Co Lead Shamaila was in Oxford. Flo's - The Place in the Park was holding a very special event to showcase the work they had been doing and it was fantastic! Well done to all who were involved. Lovely to be reunited with The Jen Group!

Kicking off day 2 at British Intrapartum Care Society with an update on the OptiBreech trials and the pilot data so far

Our Vice Chair is currently listening to this very important conference #MBRACE

Important figures:

If you have a baby that cries a lot, it can be exhausting and lonely. You are not alone.

Crying is normal. It is not your fault. It's ok to take a time out when you feel overwhelmed.

Keep baby safe, keep yourself safe.
