Kim Palmer - Intended Parent Support Manager

"My name is Kim Palmer and I joined Surrogacy in 2006 as an Intended Mother. In 2007 our surrogate mum introduced us to our beautiful daughter. Since then I have completed two years on the Executive Committee as Secretary but I stepped down in October of this year to have more time with my family. I am now helping the organisation as the Intended Parent Peer Support Manager. The Peer Support system buddies newer Members with those who have more experience to help them through their journeys."

Michelle Johnson - Surrogate Mother Support Manager

"My name is Michelle Johnson and I have been with Surrogacy UK for over 2 years now. I decided after my 4th son that I wanted no more children of my own but everything worked so I could do something lovely and help a couple have a child and I am still here trying with my second couple. With all the help I had received from SUK I thought that it would be fitting that I gave something back so I offered my help as a support worker and I am now Information co-ordinator and Support Manager so feel free to contact me if I can help with support or information session queries."
