Slightly later than usual I’m on my way to join the action IMC_Leeds. Feeling lots of emotions and mum guilt spending my first nights away from the bub since he was born, but looking forward to catching up with friends old and new and hearing about the latest research 🤓

Very impressed with IMC_Leeds providing a lactation room. The user group may be small but it makes a massive difference to making the event inclusive for new mums 👍

Many thanks SophieThérèse Ambler! I’m currently preparing my presentation on the same subject for the The real Mortimer History Society at the Tower on 1 August to celebrate the anniversary - noxious potions and rope ladders at the ready…
