Other volunteer activities
As part of our role as a Pregnancy Pal or Birth Buddy we regularly attend the following:
- Children’s centres – we meet with expectant parents making them aware of our service and discussing any concerns they may have
- Fit4mums-to-be exercise classes – an exercise programme specially designed to help expectant mums to be fit and healthy during pregnancy
- ‘Bumps and Buddies’ mornings – organised and run by Pregnancy Pals and Birth Buddies
- Hospital visits – to ensure we keep up to date with the services offered by Basildon maternity unit
- Conferences – locally and nationally to update our knowledge and to promote Parents 1st
