Emma McLeod receives an Order of Australia
For the Stillbirth Foundation Australia, the Queen's Birthday public holiday this year was a little more special. Traditionally the day is dedicated to commemorate the birth of a Queen, but this year we feel it was given over in some small way to mark the birth of so many who are not forgotten.
This year, Emma McLeod was recognised on the Queen's Birthday honours list with the title of OAM.
Emma was recognised for her herculean effort of founding and continuing to run the Stillbirth Foundation Australia, since its inception in October 2005.
