A north-east charity that provides support to women who have miscarried has begun sending out lockdown care packages to those affected.

Miss (Miscarriage Information Support Service) is dropping-off or posting the free parcels to provide support to those in need.

Each contains a tealight, essential oil, stress ball, information on further support and a card.

Chairwoman Abi Clarke said: “Due to Covid-19 and government restrictions, we are unable to have face-to-face support groups and one-to-ones.

“We would like to ensure that our members feel supported and understand they are not alone.”

Coronavirus has also led to the cancellation of two of the charity’s upcoming events.

It had been due to host a day of celebration at the Axis Centre in Newmachar on Sunday, June 14. This will be replaced by a series of family activities posted online.

Miss has also postponed a fashion show which was due to be held at the Sandman Signature Aberdeen Hotel on September 19.

A new date for 2020 will be confirmed in due course.
