Let's talk - Miscarriage, Stillbirth and Infant Death

Somethings seem too difficult to talk about. We’d like to create a space where it feels a little less difficult.

A mother, a psychologist and a gynaecologist are coming together to talk, discussion and share about these topics that often seem too painful to talk about. Let’s support each other.

There is a gap between what someone experiences and what we presume. It is key that we bring people with lived-experience to understand better multifactorial nature of the decision as well as the experience in order to support and understand them. The goal is not to judge, glorify, victimize, generalize or weaponize but to understand.

We have someone will lived experience of miscarriage and infant death, followed by a Q&A with a psychologist and a gynacologist.

After the event, there will be a facilitated sharing circle for all participants. This is because the topic and event may be triggering. If you need space to be held for you - to talk, to question, to discuss - feel free to stay back. This will happen after 8pm at the same location.
