2/3 We are showing our support to all bereaved parents, and their families. To show our support, this year we have asked our local council Chichester, where our office is based and Nottingham to light their council building and local landmarks blue and pink in honour of baby loss awareness week.

Completely disappointing progress! We are already paying out that £ and more in harm to women & babies. And of course the human & lifelong cost of harm is incalculable. We need to do much more & NOW!

A short visit this morning, but so worthwhile. We will be back again the week after next from the 19th May onwards to meet with more families.

Back to London tonight. Hoping to bring some of the beautiful Nottingham sunshine back with me 🌞

Thank you to all the many families that we met today, & all of the brilliant conversations that took place. We are always so very grateful for your warm welcome, your insight & how much we learn from you all.
