Laura-Rose Thorogood, co-founder of the LGBT Mummies Tribe, join Lotte and Stu on this week’s episode of Some Families. Laura-Rose started Mummies Tribe as a space for women and people globally to make friends and meet other families with similar experiences. Since then it has grown to an international community that aims to educate, share and celebrate LGBT+ women who want to start a family.
Laura-Rose is currently pregnant with her and her wife’s third child. She discusses their road to parenthood, being a bio and non-bio mum, the inequality and postcode lottery that people face within fertility treatments.
