The Community Midwives work for the Hospital trust and provide care and support to all pregnant women and their babies until they are 28 days old but normally hand over care to health Visotors when the baby is 10 days old. We currently have two midwives Barbara Taylor and Helen Walker who hold clinics at the surgery by appointment only and visit patients when required.

They can be contacted by telephoning 01697366609 from 9am to 5pm. In the event of an emergency outside these hours phone either the surgery (01697320209) or the hospital where they are booked to have their baby. (Cumberland Infirmary 01228814266 – Labour Ward or West Cumberland 01946693181 and ask for labour ward)
