Clean Break and the University of Hertfordshire co-commissioned Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti to write Scenes from Lost Mothers using Dr Laura Abbott’s research project Lost Mothers as inspiration, as well as speaking to Birth Companions’ Lived Experience Team.

With the voices of women with lived experience of prison at its heart, the play explores the multiple challenges faced by women who spend their pregnancy awaiting the possibility of separation, and those who are compulsorily separated from their babies.

Scenes from Lost Mothers has been designed specifically to be performed at conferences, seminars, training events or educational settings, presenting complex subject matter in a creative and accessible format.
