Bethel Doula Service supports some of the most vulnerable, isolated and destitute pregnant women in Birmingham. The women we help range in background from vulnerable teenage mums and women escaping abusive situations, to asylum seekers and refugees.​

These women have nothing at all to welcome their new babies into this world; no nappies, no baby-grows, no blankets, no towels, no toys… nothing at all. For themselves, they have no sanitary towels, no toiletries, nothing… not even toothpaste. Many also go through hours of childbirth alone. No partner, no family, and no friends to hold their hand and let them know they’ll be OK.

 Our Rapha Service provides a listening ear for those who are experiencing a difficult time in their lives and are suffering low level mental health problems. Our trained volunteers are able to sincerely listen to those who need to talk without fear of judgement.

Your donation will not only help to purchase to purchase essentials for our vulnerable women and their babies, but will also help to cover the expenses and training of our volunteers for both our Doula and Rapha service.
