#UHBristolArts Second Wednesday - This Girl Can Move
Enjoy an evening of lively conversation about how to stay
well during pregnancy and after birth.
Be the first to see an exhibition of portrait photographs
created in partnership with Bristol's This Girl Can 'Fit Got Real'
campaign for the Midwife Led Unit and hear how a photographer, a
stand up comedy performer, and a sports event producer have found
their own ways of navigating the roller coaster of early
motherhood.
Part of the regular #UHBristolArts Second Wednesday Programme
(please note change of venue to St Michael's Hospital)
During March, MOVING is the theme for #UHBristolArts Arts,
the Arts and Culture Programme at University Hospitals Bristol NHS
Foundation Trust. Throughout the month we will look at both moving
and being moved, and explore how emotions are affected by how we
exercise our bodies and our minds.
Panel includes:

daytime comedy club for parents with new babies. Angie will present
an extract of one of her popular shows and demonstrate how sharing
stories and laughing together can contribute to lifting the mood of
post-natal mums. @angiebelcher #aftermirth
