Birth in Crisis with Jane Hardwicke Collings

Jane Hardwicke Collings is fiercely rallying the birth community, as well as the community at large, to come together during this time of crisis to enact real and radical change in the care birthing women are receiving during the Coronavirus pandemic. Jane speaks of the impact the crisis is having on birthing women and mother-babies, and how we must come together now to provide better birthing options in response to what women are seeking at this time.
Together with a group of women, Jane has founded Hygieia Health, a not for profit dedicated to making such changes. They recently surveyed over 800 women and found that 80% are re-assessing their birth and maternity care options in the middle of this pandemic. Jane shares how we as a community must come together to adapt to meet the needs of women and babies, and the impact that this pandemic will have if we don't - particularly on mothers mental health.

Jane is the founder of The School of Shamanic Womancraft, has been a home birth midwife for over thirty years. and can be found at www.janehardwickecollings.com

This interview was recorded on Bundjalung country on Thursday 2 April, which must be acknowledged as much is changing daily during this pandemic. In adherence to social distancing, this interview was recorded virtually, and due to the current demand on these services, there are a few glitches and technical difficulties which we apologise for.
