Scottish Perinatal Network (SPN) Newsletter – Issue 29 – March 2023

Posted by Anne-Sophie Hoffmoen - 03/04/2023

From the author’s perch (in Glasgow) there is blue sky and sunshine, with neighbourhood hedges just in the early stages of budding (blissfully unaware of the coming of the hedgetrimmers in some weeks’ time). While the world calendar at large insists we are in the fourth month of 2023, many businesses and organisations have only just stepped into their first quarter of the new financial year, and SPN is no different. Our workplans for the year have just been presented at our Core Steering Groups and Oversight Board, and we are taking a deep breath of fresh spring air and then diving in to the work ahead.
