Mums to be documentary - are you due before June?

[sophiechristophy]

Hi everyone,

I just had this forwarded to me from Sitaram yoga, who received it from a TV production company looking for two pregnant ladies, one in her 40s and one in her teens, to take part in a new documentary they are making about motherhood. thought I would put it out there in case anyone was interested:

Dear Mum-To-Be

I am writing from an award-winning television production company, betty.

We are currently making a documentary about motherhood for Channel Four?s prestigious Cutting Edge strand, which I wanted to let you know about.

The film will look at motherhood through the eyes of two women of very different ages (a teenager and a woman in her forties) who are about to become mothers for the first time. The programme will follow them through the latter stages of pregnancy, through their births and as they get used to being mums.

We?d like the documentary to offer an insight into the experience of motherhood through the eyes of the two women at different stages of life, in a sensitive, non-judgmental way.

We?d love to speak to women in their teens and their forties who are due to give birth to their first child between now and June.

For your information, betty is a leading television production company, specialising in high quality factual programmes. Our recent credits include; the award-winning series Find Me a Family for Channel 4 (about adoption), Repossessed for BBC1 (about families facing repossession), Country House Rescue for Channel 4 (about country estates facing hard times) and the Emmy-award winning drama, Forgiven.
