£13,750: Biological Parenthood
Journalist and broadcaster Jenny Kleeman explores the financial barriers around fertility treatment as she meets some of those priced out of having a baby. Read by the author.
In a world in thrall to data, it’s possible to run a cost-benefit analysis on anything – including life itself. Journalist, broadcaster and documentary-maker Jenny Kleeman takes us on a journey to meet some of the people who decide what we're worth, exploring what we lose and gain by leaving the judgements that matter up to cold logic.
As increasing numbers struggle with fertility issues, Kleeman explores the financial hurdles that stand between some people and their dream of biological parenthood.
