Salisbury District Hospital’s Maternity Unit is now home to the New Beatrice Birth Centre. The centre is run by experienced midwives and is best described as a ‘home away from home’ environment and a middle ground alternative to the traditional labour ward or home birth. The centre, which will receive its first mothers on Monday, offers a safe, friendly environment suitable for women who have had a healthy pregnancy and are expecting to have a straightforward birth. Women can choose to give birth in the centre even if for first babies.

Today on World Menopause Day, Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust has signed the Menopause Workplace Pledge, led by the charity Wellbeing of Women, to make sure that they are supporting staff experiencing the menopause or peri-menopause, as well as informing and educating colleagues, friends and managers to create a supportive, inclusive workplace. By signing the pledge, the Trust has committed to recognising that the menopause can be an issue in the workplace and must actively offer support and information to employees affected, encouraging them to talk openly, positively and respectfully about the menopause.
