Dear All,
I hope you are keeping well and being kind to yourselves at this sometimes stressful time of year.
I wanted to reach out to thank you for your support so far and update you on the direction of travel for The Village Learning Community.
I have been speaking to lots of mums, parents, and professionals working in the UK healthcare system, and have learnt a lot over the last five months since launching The Village. One of the main things I have identified is that there are very few mechanisms available for mums/parents to share their experience of care/experience of becoming a mum/parents (during pregnancy, post-partum and beyond) and for this information to be used to actually improve things for families and make things easier for mums/parents.
I have therefore decided that this will be the mission of The Village going forwards. In the new year, I will be working hard to create a platform to listen to mums/parents and to use our collective voice and stories to improve the lives of mums, parents and their families. This is a lofty aspiration and as you can imagine a very complex piece of work. I therefore ask for your patience and your support. I will be closing this platform in the meantime while I work things out.
I would love to keep you updated about my progress and to give you the opportunity to share your story/experience if want to contribute to this important work. Please enter your email address here and I will be in touch in due course. No spam and no sales garb. I really hope to catch-up soon. If not, keep being kind to yourself and I'll catch you on the flip-side 馃槝
