About the Birth Resource Centre
Registered Charity No SC 032390
Identity
The Birth Resource Centre offers practical and
emotional support to enable
all women and their families to experience pregnancy, birth and
parenthood
with confidence and dignity. We provide antenatal and postnatal classes
focussing on movement and relaxation, one to one and group support,
sharing
experiences, information, advocacy and child-centred activities in a
warm
and welcoming environment.
Values
We
welcome everyone, whatever their beliefs, background, choices and
circumstances, and are open to different approaches, conventional and
complementary.
We believe that people make the best choices for
themselves and their
families when they have balanced and comprehensive information,
non-judgemental support and confidence in themselves.
We
honour individuals and their different circumstances and choices around
birth, and respect every unique experience.
We recognise the benefits of normal birth and of
breastfeeding, where
possible and where these are what parents choose.
We acknowledge that parents have different needs
and concerns before and
after birth, so we aim to offer continuing support, friendship and
activities throughout the process of becoming parents and raising
children.
What our users say....
The Birth Resource Centre has received many kind words of appreciation over the years; here is what one mother told us:
"…for me the BRC has been a very natural, friendly support and comfort. It has cushioned the journey from pregnancy to birth, through mothering a small baby and into toddlerhood. I’m really grateful to the BRC both for the classes and other facilities I continue to enjoy and for the friends I’ve made - the big ones and the little ones..."
