'The Last Taboo of Motherhood' project team are delighted to announce that they have been awarded a generous Research Enrichment - Public Engagement Award by the Wellcome Trust.

This will fund a new project with Fuel Theatre for the development of a series of audio pieces, which will highlight our work on maternal mental illness in the twentieth century. We have also received further funding from Warwick University’s Arts & Humanities Impact Award which will enable us to extend the reach of the project to a wider range of audiences. We will be providing further updates on this exciting project over the coming months on our project website.
