Tuesday, 25 March 2014 / Published in Labour & Birth

The truth is, your job can be meaningful regardless of what profession. The meaningfulness will be found as a result of something within your heart.

We're supporting 4Louis

This year we're supporting the 4Louis charity, supporting families through miscarriage, stillbirth and child loss - The UK has one of the highest still birth rates in Europe and the 4Louis charity is run by bereaved parents, for bereaved parents on a voluntary basis. They make memory boxes and send these out to parents who experience a still birth or miscarriage. Private Midwives will be making a donation for every care package or item bought from the store to the charity. Please help to support us by making a donation.
