Embrace a Journey of Learning and Unlearning

AJ, drawing from their profound lived experience of two fat pregnancies and births, will guide you through the history, impact, and legacy of fatphobia in maternity and perinatal services. Their extensive professional insights will enrich your understanding of these complex issues.
