BIRTH TRAUMA AWARENESS WEEK: 15-21 JULY 2024
This year’s theme for Birth Trauma Awareness Week is ‘Informed Consent’, which is necessary for respectful maternity care.
Understanding the choices, risks and alternatives during childbirth is essential. Everyone has the right to make the decisions that suit them. If this principle is ignored, it could potentially cause trauma for birthing mums and families.
By raising awareness about informed consent, we aim to spark meaningful conversations, drive policy change and ultimately prevent unnecessary birth trauma.

Robyn could you possibly look into the reinstatement of veteran plaques that where removed by Hills Council at the demolition of the Lower Portland Hall. The plaques were stored with council and never reinstated in Lower Portland. The community would like some kind of acknowledgement of those community members who served. Hills council have not responded with the whereabouts of the plaques which where stored in an office. Lower Portland represented by two local governments but this was a Hills delegation.
Keep up the good work with War Memorials of any kind.
