The support service meet on a monthly basis at Curl (Eday Walk) and Rubislaw Church Centre in Aberdeen for members (both female and male) to attend after they have suffered a miscarriage. The committee comprising of Abi Clarke (chairperson), Jade Robertson (secretary) and Carol Mcleod (treasurer) and 3 other committee members, organise speakers from a health background and a therapeutic activity by a local business which members can get involved with.
MISS also has a phone service and strong social media presence which members can use for support.
At the end of March, they are celebrating their 2nd Anniversary and have organising a Fundraising Race Night at The Ashvale (Great Western Road) in Aberdeen. Tickets (£15 which includes an Ashvale supper) and sponsorship (at £50 for weekly social media posts, flyers on tables and host to mention business on event night) are still available.
Chairperson, Abi Clarke explained: "I am delighted that we have reached SCIO status just before our 2nd Anniversary and will be something else to celebrate at our Fundraising Race Night on March 29. From a small idea on a buggy walk and talking to the HIF team, the group has grown so much and looking forward to our future."
