🎾 FREE NICU Dads Padel Social 🎾

🥎 If you’re a NICU dad looking to get out of the house, clear your head, meet other dads who get it, and have a good game along the way, then this is for you.

🥎 Come and join us for a FREE relaxed padel social for NICU dads. No pressure, no need to be a pro, just good people, some movement, and a chance to connect outside the hospital walls.

🤍 We’re hosting a gentle, one-off creative writing session with Write Yourself Well for adults who have been touched by baby loss, at any gestation.

🤍 This is a calm, supportive space. It isn't about reliving loss, and there’s no pressure to write or to share. You’re welcome to come along and simply be, or to write in whatever way feels right for you.

🤍 No writing experience is needed. Parents and close family are welcome.

📍 The Griffin, Thornaby
🗓 Friday 13th March
⏰ 12–2pm (light afternoon tea included)

🤍 If this feels like something that might be helpful for you, or for someone you know or support, please see the poster for full details or get in touch to book a place.

🤍 You are welcome just as you are.

The maternity research team at the University Hospital of North Tees would like to thank everyone who has got in touch to show an interest in being part of the Generation study.

The national study involves screening babies for more than 200 rare genetic conditions, investigating the early diagnosis and treatment of conditions that may develop in early childhood.

As part of the study, a baby’s genome is sequenced shortly after birth, using a small blood sample taken from the umbilical cord with parental consent.

Kirsty Farrington, research midwife, said: "We've been really pleased with the number of people who have reached out to us to show their interest.

"We want to remind people that to be involved in the study we need women and parents to get in touch with us before your baby is born.

"All you need to do is visit the website to show your interest."
