Our Impact

Thanks to your generosity as a donor to the Access Fund, we can continue to provide free support during pregnancy, labour and after the birth of a baby to those experiencing disadvantage and financial hardship. 

An access fund supported birth

I loved having the support and I don't remember a time I felt this nurtured - even from childhood. It was strange at first to feel like I deserved this help but my doulas both made me realise that I do and all women do.

Our Supporters

The Access Fund is mostly financed out of Doula UK’s membership income and from modest individual donations. We receive no public subsidy and are reliant on private donations and grants to sustain the Access Fund and continue to provide doula support to those most in need. 

Thank you Doulas of Northern Ireland, Abbi Leibert, Alison Grunwell, Nicola Wilson, Leila Baker and many more anonymous supporters who regularly donate to us.

Thanks to our funders Safer Beginnings Programme and PIB Community Trust Grant.

We are always looking for additional financial contributions to enable us to reach more families needing support. 

Perhaps you are someone who believes that a doula should be an option for every woman and birthing person who wants one? Perhaps you hired a doula yourself and would like to help others get the benefits you received? If so, please consider donating to the Access Fund and sharing donation options with others.
