I had a really proud moment yesterday, pouring my heart out to ALL the people who run on their staff away day.
•
I sat on a panel with two very strong and inspiring fellow Tommy’s supporters/fundraisers (their fundraising far surpasses mine tenfold!!), each with our own affiliation to the charity, and our own scars to bare.
•
And a very special moment was coming face to face for the first time with one of their bereavement midwives, Juliette, who made such an impact on me in 2023. I’d called their helpline when I was deep in the trenches following our 5th (of 7) miscarriages. And I no longer had the knowledge and support of a consultant, who I’d previously seen through a Tommy’s recurrent miscarriage clinic in London, as he had so sadly and suddenly passed away just a couple of months after I had seen him. At that point, I was possibly at my lowest, I felt so lost and I didn’t know where to turn. Juliette was a voice at the end of the phone who just got it. She offered to reach out to their other research centres and recurrent miscarriage clinics in Birmingham and Coventry for me, to take the burden off my shoulders and pass on everything we’d been through to their medics, when I had no energy to keep looking for answers. That kind and selfless act made such an impact on me when I needed it the most, and I’ve never forgotten it. So to sit there, telling that story of how Tommy’s has helped me, and looking at her in the audience, through my tears, to say thank I you, was really special.

I explained to the room I will continue to support and raise awareness of Tommy’s. For me personally, I am so behind them funding research into the unexplained traumas of baby loss with an aim to try and prevent it for future generations. They also campaign for changes in Government when it comes to maternal health and support through and after every miscarriage, which is so needed. But what a lot of people don’t know, is they do SO much for every stage of pregnancy.

It’s a privilege to be seen and heard by them. And I could see the passion in the room. What a charity! 🩷 Thank you for inviting me 🙏🏻xx
