My life as a midwife on the frontline

Available for over a year

Anna Kent was a 26-year-old nurse from the UK when she joined humanitarian aid organisation Médecins Sans Frontières. She has delivered babies in warzones, the aftermath of major disasters and in refugee camps - experiences which would profoundly change her and shape her own journey to motherhood. Please be warned that this programme contains disturbing descriptions of baby loss. These are an important picture of what some pregnant women and medical practitioners have to face in difficult conditions but some listeners will find this distressing. Anna's interview was first broadcast in May 2022 Presenter: Jo Fidgen Producer: Zoe Gelber Get in touch: [email protected] or WhatsApp +44 330 678 2707 (Photo: Anna Kent in Haiti, 2010.
