Give today
Your donation gets us one step closer to a world where fewer parents are traumatised by the experience of birth.
Support us to support traumatised families.
The Birth Trauma Association does not have a regular source of income, and we rely on donations to fund our work.
Every little you give helps us support more parents who have been affected by traumatic birth and campaign to improve the quality of maternity care. We particularly welcome regular donations, because they enable us to plan ahead, but if you can’t stretch to that at the moment, we’d be delighted with a one-off donation.
£5
could help us support 12 new parents with advice and information.
£10

£20
could help us recruit and train eight new peer supporters.
How we’re making a difference
SUPPORT for parents who have been psychologically distressed by traumatic birth.
Influencing POLICY and contributing to RESEARCH to improve UK maternity care.
CAMPAIGNING and press to raise awareness and improve maternal safety.
“The Facebook support group has really been so helpful. I’m sure I have/had PTSD but still feel uncomfortable visiting or speaking to GP as I attempted once but felt brushed off. They also didn’t have any details of my birth. So thank you for the safe, kind and informative space you have created.”
