2-Day Twin Birth Workshop - Folkestone, 18-19 Marc

2-Day Twin Birth Workshop - Folkestone, 18-19 March

More women and families expecting twins are seeking a less medicalised path. Midwives need the knowledge and skills to support them.

Independent midwives Natasha Soliman and Sophie Franks are hosting a two-day workshop with Debs Rhodes, focused on physiological birth skills and the unique considerations of twin pregnancies and birth. Debs brings 30 years of midwifery experience in the UK and internationally, trained by Mary Cronk, Jane Evans, Ina May Gaskin and Michel Odent among others.

Prerequisite - recent breech birth training or experience is required, as at least one twin is commonly breech.

Open to midwives, doulas and birthkeepers. Payment plans available.

Dates - 18 and 19 March 2026
Time - 10am to 5.30pm
Location - Folkestone
Cost - £250 (2, 3 or 4 month payment plans)

"We're patted on the head. Told our concerns are 'noted.' Told to stop being emotional, or political, or dramatic."

No More Asking Nicely: Women, Rights, and the Homebirth Crisis by Emma Gleave

In Gloucestershire, the homebirth service was quietly suspended. No consultation. No transparency. No lawful process. And as usual, it was left to women to figure out what was going on.

Emma Gleave's article in the Winter 2025 issue of Midwifery Matters lays bare a national pattern: homebirth services dismantled, midwife-led care treated as an optional extra, and women's concerns met with silence.

This is not about preference. This is about rights, autonomy, and safety.

Emma is part of the newly formed Gloucestershire Maternity Action Group, supporting women affected by service suspensions with legal information, evidence summaries, and template letters. Find their resources at emmasantenatal.com.

Workshop - Birth & Death Traditions in Romany Gyps

Workshop - Birth & Death Traditions in Romany Gypsy & Traveller Culture

@clare_cox_doula Clare Cox is a Romany Gypsy doula with over 20 years of experience supporting families through birth, postnatal recovery and loss. This workshop is aimed at doulas, midwives and perinatal professionals.

The online session on 25 February covers traditional approaches to pregnancy and birth, how well-intentioned care can unintentionally cause distress, and what respectful, trust-building support looks like in practice. Not recorded.

This is cultural competence grounded in lived experience, not assumptions.
