April 2023
Charity work
Pelvic Health Conference
Kingston Hospital NHS Foundation Trust – speaking at this conference as a MASIC Advocate is a great opportunity to raise the awareness, the profile and consequences of OASI birth injuries.
Guildford MASIC support group
Date confirmed is 13th May 2023
‘Sustaining a severe injury whilst giving birth can be challenging to live with and difficult to talk about. This is a support group to allow women to talk confidentially in a safe space about their symptoms, or any complications that arise from living with a taboo injury.
This group covers Surrey, Hampshire & Berkshire. If you are out of those areas and want to join, you will be welcomed too!’
