S1 E12: #ButNotMaternity with Holly Avis


Listen Later

Holly is a mum to 3 boys, living in Northamptonshire, who started a petition to allow partners in to hospitals when she faced the prospect of being without her husband, Ricky, when she needed him most. We talk to Holly about the #butnotmaternity campaign and her experience of being pregnant and birthing during the pandemic.
