📢 ‘ALL organisations should update their HR policies & practices to adequately support staff who experience pre-24-week baby loss’.

[Miscarriage & Infertility Support Training @MISTWorkshops]

@DrKrysWilkinson @PregnancyLossIE @ammowalsh @Independent_ie @CIPD Thank you so much for recommending our services, Krystal. A stark reality for so many, however with training, policy implementation (and more), we can create positive change ☀️

[Krystal Wilkinson @DrKrysWilkinson]

@PregnancyLossIE @ammowalsh @Independent_ie Good to see the issue flagged here! Hopefully more employers will engage with guidance/training from credible sources such as @cipd and @MISTWorkshops

[Katy Schnitzler @Katyschnitzler]

Bravo to the children’s show @OfficialBlueyTV for addressing the issue of #childlessness in their recent series. The way it was conveyed was beautiful, raw and sensitive. It really helps to raise awareness of the pain, hardship & isolation experienced - even between siblings.
