There would be no Birth Project, and therefore no WILD or STITCH, without @ace_national. So a massive THANK YOU for that trust & for taking a risk on a show about birth. #NationalLottery25

Pretty epic way to spend a Friday night with a bunch of wonderful women. Thank you for the over-sharing, the raucous laughter and the useful breast-pad confetti!!! 😂 🎉 Stories make us strong. #birth #women #thebirthproject #NobodyToldMe #overshare

We're busy preparing for our #Birth Day event this evening - an event to recognise birth in all its forms. Featuring the award-winning poetry by @holliepoetry and brilliant, bold theatre show @wildaboutbirth.

We are hosting a free, drop in workshop with @wildaboutbirth at 3pm today where women are invited to share birth stories, eat cake and create embroidered artworks that respond to their own personal birth experiences.

It’s #WorldMentalHealthDay2019 which is rather apt, as today I head off on tour with #WILD again. At least 1 in 5 women will experience a mental illness in pregnancy/early motherhood & suicide is the leading cause of maternal death in the 1st year post partum. #postnatalillness
Ah hi Louise! This is the last date of a rather spread out tour (tomorrow is at @the_spring in Havant) before we batten down the hatches to try and get the next leg funded. Will update on here and on the website as soon as that happens!

"I have always known that I wanted to make a show about birth, to put my story out in the world, and to say all the worst things, so that other people can feel normal for feeling them too!"
@wildaboutbirth talks about the inspiration behind #Wild on our Instagram today
MEGA excited to be bringing #WILD to @the_spring this Friday (11th)! Two chances to see the show including a #babyfriendly showing at 2pm. thespring.co.uk/whats-on/the…
And a wee bit beside myself to be sharing the billing with @holliepoetry. Come to #BIRTHday #havant folk!

The Birth Project will be joining the march tomorrow in #Exeter, proud to stand side by side with the inspirational school strikers. Even better, I'll get to march next to my girl (if she'll let me!). #globalclimatestrike

I’m very sorry to announce that #WILD @ExeFringe will not be going ahead due to a sudden death in the family. Hugely sad to not be performing at this marvellous festival but am making the decision to be with loved ones. Thanks for your understanding. I’ll be back xx
The exhibition is up @ArtWorkExeter on Paris Street and it’s looking amazing! Do drop by OR you can always come tomorrow between 5.30 & 7 to see it all with a glass of wine in hand! Please RT @ExeterCultural @MaketankExeter @ExeterLibrary @ExeterLifeMag
