Sharing Caring Zine & Patch * Special Edition!

Sharing Caring - A zine about about pregnancy, parenthood and care

Sharing Caring is a collection of writing and artwork made by family and friends (new and old) about their experiences of pregnancy, parenthood and care. Contributions to the zine were all made in moments grabbed between looking after the person or people they care for. These stories, poems and images were complied in second half of 2020 during lockdown.

Sharing Caring contributors are (in order of reading): Nadia Rossi, Nicki McCubbing, Catherine Weir, Katie Orton, Kathryn Ashill, Phoebe Strickland, Debi Banerjee, Raman Mundair, Helen Kaplinsky, Isobel Neviazsky, Katie Lundie, Matilda Strang, Rosie Kilmurry Lamb, Mhari McMullan, Benn Benjamin, Alice Dansey-Wright, Rebecca Livesey-Wright, Ariane Jackson, Hanou Amendah, Bex Anson, Usma Ashraf, Laura Lulika, Ruby Pester and Erin Busswood.

Sharing Caring has been complied by Nadia Rossi.

Thanks to Milou and Nan for the artwork on the front and back covers.

Trigger warning: some of the testimonies in this zine include experiences of post natal depression, pregnancy loss, racism, domestic and sexual abuse.

The special first edition of Sharing Caring was printed and bound with Saffa at Tender Hands Press in Govanhill, Glasgow. The zine comes with a 'Babies Against Bullshit' patch embroidered by Trudi & Kerry at Wild 'n' Kind in Glasgow.

Sharing Caring is being sold to raise funds for Amma Birth Companions, a Scottish charity that supports women and birthing people who are experiencing significant adversity on their journey to parenthood.
