Doula records single to support independent midwives

A doula who supports other women through birth has recorded a song to help independent midwives who have been unable to work due to a lack of available insurance.
IMUK, the membership organisation for independent midwives in the UK, said there are currently no viable insurance options to allow members to attend births.
Nickita Starck, 34, who works as a doula and a singer, hopes her single Breathe Again will help raise funds to set up a new insurance product for independent midwives.
Jacqui Tomkins, chair of IMUK, said the insurance company used by IMUK members since 2018 withdrew from the UK market last June “as a result of an advancing Brexit”.
