We support some of Birmingham’s most vulnerable and isolated families, antenatally, throughout birth and postnatally. 

We support women experiencing complex and multiple disadvantages during pregnancy, birth and early motherhood, helping them to feel safer, more supported and less alone.

We work across Birmingham, with a particular focus on communities experiencing high levels of deprivation. The women we support may be facing domestic abuse, homelessness, addiction, mental health difficulties, racism, the challenges of migration or the asylum system, teenage pregnancy or severe financial hardship. Many are also experiencing profound isolation, with little or no reliable support network around them.

Whatever their circumstances, we meet women where they are, without judgement, offering compassionate, practical and emotional support when they need it most.

 
 

Support us

We need to raise in excess of £200,000 a year to keep our services running. We rely on the kindness of our funders and supporters to raise these funds.

“I fell in love with someone who ended up being a dangerous man who beat me. I was used by many violent men and I was moved from city to city. When I was six months pregnant, I met my doula. She bought me food and all the items I would need for my hospital stay and for the baby. It was a great relief to have someone come alongside me at this time. I didn't know that people could be that kind.”
