Call for women to join rally when birth trauma inquiry hits Wollongong
A group of women in Wollongong is calling for support and participation in a rally to raise awareness about birth trauma. The rally will coincide with the upcoming birth trauma inquiry in the area. The women hope that their voices will finally be heard after years of feeling ignored, and they are encouraged by the validation of their feelings by those who are now paying attention.
Ms. Booth, one of the advocates for the rally, expressed her disbelief that someone is finally listening. For seven years, she and others have been shouting into a void, desperately trying to bring attention to the issue of birth trauma. Now, with the inquiry approaching, they are grateful to have a significant number of people who are finally acknowledging the pain and struggles experienced by women and families affected by birth trauma.
The rally aims to provide a platform for women to share their stories and experiences in a supportive community. By coming together, these women hope to bring attention to the urgent need for improved support, understanding, and resources for those affected by birth trauma. Through solidarity and collective action, they believe that change can be achieved.
