We are pleased to share that we are going to be at the Maternity and Midwifery Festival London (WC1H 0DG) on Tuesday 7th February.
We will be officially launching our Health Care Professional course and offering mini-mindfulness workshops to attendees so they can learn about the benefits and incorporate the tools into their day-to-day working and personal life. We like to call it 🧡 caring for the carer 🧡.
We will also be offering a 15% discount on the HCP course to anyone who visits us and signs up to the mailing list.
This event is FREE to all student and registered midwives and will be packed full of insightful talks, a wellness space (where we will be) and an exhibitors area too.
See the full program, here.

![Every family deserves compassionate, respectful, and tailored perinatal care. Yet, LGBTQ+ families often encounter barriers that can impact their well-being during this critical time.
The Reality:

🌈 Mental Health Disparities: Research indicates that LGBTQ+ individuals may experience higher levels of perinatal mental health challenges. [All 4 Maternity]
🌈 Systemic Challenges: The traditional focus on ‘maternal’ and ‘paternal’ roles can inadvertently exclude LGBTQ+ parents, leading to feelings of isolation and inadequate support. [All 4 Maternity]
Voices from the Community:
“Parenting with pride means taking what others feel makes my family different and turning that into something special. Turning that difference into pride.” — Aydian Dowling [The Bump]
