Support for Pregnant people in the immigration system
If you (or a client of yours) want to have one-off or ongoing contact with me to provide midwifery advice, antenatal education and support and advocacy in accessing perinatal/maternity services then please email me at phoebethemidwife@gmail.com and I will respond as soon as possible. This is an entirely free service.
You don’t need to share any details beyond a first name and a contact email or phone number if you do not wish to. I can also refer you to many local and national services and resources (including Baby Basics and other charities) as you need.
I run a drop-in midwifery clinic at the City of Sanctuary (Victoria Hall, Norfolk St, Sheffield City Centre, Sheffield S1 2JB) every Wednesday from 1pm-2.30pm. In person translators are normally available.
This multi-agency drop in also has many other useful organisations you can access, more details can be found here: https://sheffield.cityofsanctuary.org/our-work/the-multiagency-drop-in/
