The Miscarriage Association would like to thank all those who have been involved in providing our services during this, our 25th anniversary year. We are conscious too of our founders and the many people who have contributed their support, time and skills since The M.A.’s earliest days in 1982.

We are very grateful to our volunteer telephone contacts and support group organisers and helpers. Women and men with personal experience of pregnancy loss, they are the backbone of The Miscarriage Association, as they have always been, providing a national network of comfort and support to others in a similar situation.

Our thanks also go to the people who help to recruit, train and support volunteers; our media volunteers; those who review books for the newsletter; and those who help us raise funds. Our advisors and other volunteers who provide specialist advice and help are also indispensable. They have helped us answer medical queries, develop electronic communications, update our leaflets and plan for the future. Their contribution is strengthened by the support and commitment of the Trustees and our staff team.

We would like to express particular gratitude to the following people for generously sharing their time and skills:

• the members of our Professional Advisory Board
• our patrons
• Peta Harrison, editor of our members’ newsletter
• Nigel Wood, our webmaster
