Such a pleasure to be working w/Dr Anna Miller (newly minted PhD-Doctor 👏🎉) on the My First 1000 Days project We're exploring disabled birthing parents' experiences of post-natal support; & parents of disabled infants' experiences of early-years health & social wellbeing support

Earlier this week, Alice Kininmonth and I had the pleasure of attending City, University of London Pregnancy Circles training day to support the implementation of antenatal and postnatal group care. We came out with a lot of insight that can be applied to our project, My First 1000 Days

So pleased to share insights and resources for group care with the team @UniversityofLeeds #MyFirst1000Days. We're all pulling in the same direction! REACHpregnancy #PregnancyCircles GroupCare1000 Group Care Global Centre for Maternal & Child Health Research
