Free birth pool hire
If you are looking to have a home birth and have thought about hiring a pool then please feel free to contact me. The pool is for hire subject to the compulsory purchase of a liner (for safety and infection control) and a donation to support this community scheme.
The hire period is from weeks 37- 43 of your pregnancy with collection and return to Epsom.
