I am Elsie, an 18 year old Health and Social Care Student and aspiring midwife. I am raising money to travel to Thailand to expereince midwifery practice. I am also donating 25% of what I raise to the childbirth charity, Women and Children First.

Women and Children first work to prevent deaths during or shortly after pregnancy, especially in Africa and South Asia.

I would like to travel to Thailand, to understand the differences between our materinity care in the UK and maternity care in less developed locations. I am traveling with Gap Medics who will provide an educational experience through this once in a life time oppertunity. This oppertunity will allow me to understand my passion in greater detail whilst helping me achieve the steps it will take to become a midwife. 

There would be not greating feeling than being able gain insight and knowlege to materinity in such an amazing enivronment, whilst giving to a hugely important charity. 

Thank you for reading.
