A birth injury can be one of the most traumatic experiences faced by both mother and child, particularly as it is supposed to be a moment of such joy. As part of its work, the Birth Trauma Association (BTA) runs a national awareness day that aims to ensure that women who have been through this experience know they are not alone.
The National Birth Trauma Awareness Day, as it is known, began in August 2007, three years after the inception of the BTA. The chair of the organisation has said, "The aim of the awareness day is to raise awareness of birth trauma and the work of our organisation, so that families know there is somewhere they can turn to for help and support during what can be a devastating time."
The BTA has encouraged members and supporters to engage in charitable activities on the day, such as cake sales, family picnics and sponsored dress-down days at work; in keeping with the modern age, it has also produced a Facebook avatar image for users of the social networking service to use.
The organisation claims that "The causes of traumatic birth are widely acknowledged; overstretched maternity services where mothers feel no-one is listening, poor support, inadequate pain relief and degrading and humiliating practices."
