This is a once in a lifetime opportunity – with an election coming up – to send a very loud message, there is a real sense of all the different stakeholders being united in one voice and it could, with hindsight be seen as the turning point for the midwifery profession.
We demand that all women should have a midwife they can get to know, be able to access home birth, a local birth centre, and that there should be independent midwifery available as an option for women to choose.
Meet at 1.00PM in Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Park, Lambeth Road, SE14EQ
We will march to Whitehall to hand in a petition to the Health Minister and letters to the Prime Minister
Master of Ceremonies: Peter Duncan. Speakers include: Professor Wendy Savage, AIMS Chair Beverley Beech, Albany Midwife Becky Reed, IM UK Board Member Annie Francis, NCT CEO Belinda Phipps, Albany Mums Support Group campaigner Emma Neamish and Duncan Fisher OBE
PLEASE TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THIS IMPORTANT RALLY.
