Chris and his partner suffered a miscarriage in February of this year.  He was looking for answers, for help and support without going down the therapy route, but couldn’t find anything dedicated to men that he felt was right for him.  A few short weeks later, Chris created miscarriageformen.com with the aim of helping “that one person that might need it”.

Being, quote “just a lad from the North East of England”, Chris was brought up with the same mindset as most; boys don’t cry and they certainly do not need help.  They are strong and tough and can deal with anything.  On his mission to making Miscarriage for Men a 24/7 support network, Chris is also trying to remove the stigma of men asking for help.

P.S. For those that know me, you will be very proud to know that Chris & I spoke for over an hour and I didn’t attempt to copy his accent once!  We did, however, discuss whether it’s breakfast-lunch-dinner or breakfast-dinner-tea! #northvssouth
