I've put together a list of resources for UK #midwives (but might be useful for others too) providing care to Afghan women. Let me know if you're aware of anything else and I will add. Translated resources are currently limited but I hope this will change.

Thanks so much to everyone who joined us last night! Great to reflect on our journey so far and begin mapping out where we'd like to go - starting with what we can each do as individuals with any power and privilege we already hold to tackle systemic racism in our own networks

[MyiraKhanCounselling #WorkingWithinDiversity @Myira_Khan]

A great meeting with @PsyChangeLeics tonight! Always so informative and inspiring!❤

[Psychology for Social Change Leicester @PsyChangeLeics]

Such a helpful model for us to consider as a network of psychologists looking to apply what we know to community and social action @PsychSocChange

[Psychology for Social Change Leicester @PsyChangeLeics]

Looking forward to our online PSC Leicester meeting tonight at 7pm. We'll be continuing to plan local actions to tackle systemic racism. Keen to link up with community groups. DM us for link to join!
