Our seasonal Birth Forum is nearly here and we are ready with mince pies and brandy! We wish to thank our November guests Mel Scott andViv Groskopwho together gave us a special evening relating their respective experiences of losing a baby, and writing in the media about Parenthood and the variety of issues surrounding it.
Mel has set up a charity to support Parents through dark times and can be contacted on : www.finleysfootprints.com
Viv writes articles regularly published in Guardian Family , the Times and the London Evening Standard , and can be heard on radio 4 too , specifically woman’s hour and you and yours .
On December 8th we will be hearing about Mindfulness from leading educators Karen Atkinson and Dr Maya Spencer .
They will be explaining how Mindfulness impacts positively on daily life , and how new parents can incorporate and use it to manage the transitions necessary when a new baby arrives .
We meet from 7.30 to begin for 7.45 at the Friends Meeting House,Bath Place,Tauntonand look forward to seeing you there .
Top tip:
As it will be late night shopping we have learned over the past years that parking can be more difficult than at any other time.
