At Birth Companions we believe that no woman should go through pregnancy, birth and early motherhood on her own.
We offer specialist practical and emotional support to women facing severe inequity and disadvantage before, during and after their baby’s birth. We work with women in prisons across England, and in the community in London. It’s hard to sum up everything we do but women often tell us we are like family.
We also think much more could be done at a national level to improve care for women who experience severe inequity and disadvantage during this crucial time in their lives.
That’s why we also work closely with women with lived experience of inequity and disadvantage in the perinatal period to drive tangible change in policy and practice across the systems and services that impact their lives. In addition to the maternity care system, we have a strong focus on women's experiences and needs within the criminal justice, children's social care, and immigration systems.
