Approximately 1 in 6 couples are affected by infertility and 1 in 4 pregnancies end in loss during pregnancy or birth.
You only have to start talking about these subjects to realise that many people around you have their own experiences to share. But somehow, these issues still carry a lot of shame, and they remain difficult to talk about.
In this webinar from the Bank Workers Charity, they talk openly to understand the varied paths to having a child, the effects of fertility treatment on wellbeing, and provide some examples of support in the workplace. They also address the different types of pregnancy loss, how it impacts all genders, and how to support someone you know who has experienced loss.
This webinar is designed for, and is open to, all genders.
What will be covered in the session:
This is an externally hosted event by the Bank Workers Charity through the Zoom platform. Accord is not responsible for the material.
