How can we support staff who have experienced pregnancy loss?

Dear colleagues,

I would like to invite you to an event to learn more about pregnancy loss, the effects on staff, and the support available.

Date: Friday, 21 January 2022
Time: 13.00 - 14.00 UK time

There are three main objectives of the event:

1. Identifying the need to create safe spaces for an otherwise difficult conversation about grief and loss
2. Sharing best practice by hearing the lived experience of people who have benefitted from support provisions in place
3. Considering HR policies that embed leave provision, emotional support, time off, etc. in cases of pregnancy loss

I have invited Madiha Sajid, Co-Chair of National Network for Parents & Carers in HE, (and ex-UCL employee and ex-Chair of UCL PACT) to chair the session and we have guest speakers to share their experiences. I will also be talking about how UCL can support its staff in this area.

Please book your space by signing up here.

I look forward to welcoming you.

Lorren Rea
Head of Employment Policy
