Sara Pascoe

Sara Pascoe Instagram – Comedian, author and broadcaster @sara.pascoe is presenting @womenandchildrenfirstuk’s @bbcradio4 appeal this Sunday, 28th July, at 7:54am, and again at 9:25pm.
 
Every 2 minutes a woman dies in pregnancy and childbirth from preventable causes. Women & Children First works with communities around the world, setting up health groups which make pregnancy and childbirth safer.
 
Sara will be sharing Rabiya’s story – a woman who lives in Lemen Abu, a small remote village in central Ethiopia, where women often give birth without a midwife or doctor present. Listen to our appeal to find out what happened to her when she faced complications in labour, and how her health group saved her life.
 
The first £10,000 of donations made to the appeal will be trebled by a group of generous supporters – enabling the charity to save even more lives.
 
Sara Pascoe says, “I am supporting Women and Children First because I believe that all women, everywhere in the world, should be able to give birth safely. I love how the groups empower women, and give mums-to-be the confidence, knowledge and know-how they need to have a safe pregnancy and birth.”
 
Please tune in on Sunday to hear Sara share Rabiya’s story and find out how you can give. For more information about the charity visit www.wcf-uk.org/radio4, or click the link in the charity’s bio.
