Project MAMA is a registered charity launched in March 2018 that offers a free, confidential and individual-focused holistic support to women throughout pregnancy, labour and child birth, and those first few weeks of parenthood. We support women refugees, asylum-seekers, survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking and other displaced women. We focus on this demographic because of the extreme difficulty women can have accessing the NHS, the language barriers they are facing and the extreme social isolation they experience. Project MAMA is a hive of midwives, activists, doulas and birth companions as part of a peer network of skills, support and solidarity for women and their children. Our ethos is to encourage independence and bolster resilience in women by providing a safe and nurturing space. We promote women’s choices, enable access to a hub of peer support and we promote an understanding of a a woman’s rights and entitlements surrounding maternity healthcare in these challenging times.
