Making Parents
Infertility Awareness and South Asian Communities
March 14th 2006, Belgrave Neighbourhood Centre, Leicester. 10-1.30pm.
How might culture and religion influence attitudes to infertility and its
treatment?
How can we increase awareness of infertility treatments and ensure access to
fertility services?
This half-day event is an opportunity for members and representatives of
South Asian communities, infertility service providers, infertility support
groups and researchers to debate key issues surrounding infertility
treatments.
Infertility clinicians will present information on the techniques available
to help people with fertility problems, and researchers from De Montfort
University, who have organised the event, will present findings from a
research project which explores attitudes to reproductive technologies
including IVF and egg/sperm donation within British South Asian communities.
Contributors include:
Dr. Allan Pacey, British Fertility Society
Dr. Lorraine Culley, De Montfort University
Pip Morris, National Gamete Donation Trust

Lunch will be provided free of charge and follow the main event at 1.30pm.
