Speaking and Events

Our team enjoy sharing our stories and expertise - on our work, Black maternity experiences and the importance of collaboration and partnership.

Unless you’re a very good friend we are unable to attend events for free and we’re tired of telling people that it’s rude to ask.

Our fees start from £250 to speak at an online event. We always do our best to accommodate audiences and organisations that can help us achieve our aims.
