PREGNANT women are being invited to Leighton Hospital to find out more about the benefits of home birth.

A midwife-led event will be held in the Parent Education Room in the maternity department on Tuesday, February 3.

Midwife Bev Jervis said: “Home birth is an ideal choice if you do not plan to have an epidural, and want to be sure of having a known midwife with you during your labour.”
