📢 The NHS wants to hear your views on a proposal about midwife-led birthing units at County Hospital in Stafford and Samuel Johnson Community Hospital in Lichfield.

Both units would still offer antenatal and postnatal appointments, as they do now. Birthing services, which temporarily closed there since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, would close permanently.

The NHS is especially keen to hear from people who are:

☑️ Planning a pregnancy
☑️ Currently pregnant
☑️ New parents
☑️ Anyone who has recently used maternity services

No final decisions have been made yet.

I am looking for volunteers to do a drum healing or journey with me. You can do it online in the comfort of your own home and it will take about 30 minutes. If you feel like you have something weighing you down or playing on your mind this might help. Or maybe you have a decision to make and need space to think about it or ask for guidance. Please message me for more information and to book a session.

Do you feel in need of total relaxation? I can help! I offer a totally holistic experience. We can spend time discussing where you hold tension and why you feel tense (if you want to, of course) we can decide what would be the best treatment for you to totally relax. I offer a range of treatments, such as Drum healing and drum Journeying. Reiki which heals with energy and can be done fully clothed or Relaxed touch, through a series of massage techniques.
