MaMa Conference 2012
Thursday 26th & Friday 27th APRIL 2012
Barcelo Troon Marine Hotel in AYRSHIRE, SCOTLAND.
MAMA Conferences are about learning together, sharing knowledge and skills. We bring together expert speakers with Midwives, Mothers, Doctors, Students, Doulas and other healthcare professionals in a unique learning environment.
We believe that the best maternity care will only come about when healthcare professionals learn not only from each other, but also with and from mothers themselves. We strive to create an environment of shared practice and understanding that unifies practitioners in a common cause to promote the best maternity care possible for mothers, babies and families.
