Advocacy and Support in the Health Care System - Amisha, birth worker

Anybody Everybody Tottenham

In today's episode I am talking to Amisha to find out what exactly is a birth worker or doula and how she got to start this interesting path. We talk about her specific focus on black and brown women in this context and also her advocacy for LGBTQ+ parents and their specific challenges.
Amisha is fairly new to Tottenham but still has some great top tips for the local area.
