Today I spoke at the excellent Nursing in Practice event held in the impressive Bridgewater Hall in Manchester. http://www.bridgewater-hall.co.uk/
It was my first event for them so I had a relatively small seminar room which was completely full! So I hope to be asked to return! My book is going to be reviewed for both their journal and the CPHVA - the UK's leading professional organisation for health visitors, school nurses, nursery nurses and other community nurses working in primary care.

As a speaker it is always good to be given plenty of information before the event, your presentation up and running ready for you and generally being 'looked after' - the NiP team certainly did that. Lunch in the Green Room was a real treat - thank you!
Due to attending a meeting in the morning I wasn't able to catch other presentations other than a fascinating one by the Royal Northern College of Music on their project on 'Music for Health'. http://www.rncm.ac.uk/

I attended the presentation yesterday at the NIP Conference in Manchester. It was not only informative, but inspirational. As a student health visitor it is always beneficial to meet people who have been through postnatal illness and recovered and Elaine's story will help me when I am helping mothers in the future. Thank you for sharing your story with us Elaine.
I attended this conference and was lucky enough to hear Elaine speak. As a mother, midwife and student Health Visitor I am still amazed at how this area of womens health can be overlooked by some health professionals. Elaines talk was truly inspirational and I am just so thrilled to hear that from her saddness such good work is being done. Well done you your son is lucky to have you.
