<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Maternity Worldwide is a charity dedicated to saving lives in childbirth in developing countries such as Ethiopia where our cycle challenge will take place.&nbsp; Just &pound;15 helps to ensure the saftey of a mother during childbirth...whether you have had a child or not or are currently pregnant or know someone who is, i'm sure you will agree that this is a small price to pay for the safety of mother and baby.&nbsp;</p> <p>We are lucky that we have access to an excellent standard of maternity care in this country, but countries such as Ethiopia don't always have that luxury making pregnancy and childbirth a real life or death gamble.</p> <p>Good maternity care and the wellbeing of women and children is a subject that is obviously close to my heart being a midwife. That is why my friend Sally (Northampton Homebirth Midwife) and I chosen to support this charity.</p> <p>We hope you'll agree that this is a worthwhile cause and give as much as you can to help us in our quest to reach our targets!</p> <p>You can follow our journey through our blog at <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.midwives-in-ethiopia.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">www.midwives-in-ethiopia.blogs​pot.com</a> and our facebook page at</p> <p>www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Sally-and-Lisas-Ethiopian-Bike-ride-Challenge-for-maternity-worldwide/247368181960043&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks a million...Lisa and Sally xx</p>
