Happy pride month!
We're wishing all #OurNHSPeople a very happy #PrideMonth! We know Pride celebrations will be a little different this year, but we’ll still be celebrating our wonderful LGBT+ family from a safe distance. Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈 ✊ #LoveIsLove

This was such a great conversation. A community of cultures coming together to hear each other talk about maternity experiences and ask questions, with a particular focus on South Asian women this week.

I love how Simone Riley used her platform to tell her story of postnatal depression despite worrying about being judged - amazing things can happen when we reach out.
2 years ago on a International Women’s day I took a deep breath & told a story I had kept hidden for several years. I didn’t know how it would be received & thought I was going to be judged, something in the pit of my stomach said u have to do this u can help save someone’s life.

We had our Maternity Voices Partnership meeting this morning! Lots of great discussion and ideas around the topic of "Involvement, diversity and addressing inequalities."
Great video about co-creation! We'll be learning more about how to use these tools at Sheffield MVP as we develop - can't wait!

My latest blog is a horror story but not because today is Halloween; higher rates of Black and Asian women are dying in childbirth.
