What Do We Do?
The Doula project provides 1:1 emotional and practical support to women in Hull from late pregnancy, during labour (if required) and for up to 6 weeks postnatally, and the Breastfeeding Peer Support Project (BFPS) provides breastfeeding support throughout pregnancy and beyond.
Our fully trained volunteers empower women to make their own informed choices and decisions by providing a wealth of knowledge and information, and the support of our dedicated volunteer team can be accessed via hospital wards, midwife clinics, community groups, home visits and the helpline (open 8am-10pm, 365 days of the year).
Since 2005, we’ve supported thousands of women as well as receiving nominations and multiple awards including “Commitment to Community Award”, “Community Organisation Award” and “HEY Smile Foundation Volunteer Awards”.
