Back at the Hamlet Centre this morning for a lovely visit with the NICU group. Such a wonderful, relaxed group and a great opportunity to meet other NICU parents over a cuppa. If you’d like more information about the group please get in touch.

A huge thank you, Norfolk and Norwich Neonatal Voices for facilitating our first service user feedback & listening event discussing supporting early expressing & the value of breastfeeding for #NICU parents. It was a privilege to listen to our previous service users & we are motivated to #improve. #QI
