JourneyMaa is an annual event that supports mothers in Bangladesh by running health camps to provide essential support to expectant mothers. It is truly something I would like to be a part of. Growing up in a country where I've been fortunate to have access to education and healthcare, I've come to realize just how easily we can take these necessities for granted.

According to the World Health Organisation, women in Bangladesh are 21 times more likely to die from maternal causes compared to the UK.

Maa is a grassroots charity striving to improve the dire situation in resource-poorsettingsto bring aboutsafe, effective, high quality maternal health care. To facilitate JourneyMaa, Maa has established strong links with local universities, medical professionals and healthcare students with the aim of providing long-term sustainable maternal care in rural areas of Bangladesh.

JourneyMaa offers UK students and young professionalsthe opportunity to travel to Bangladesh to:

- Provide educational workshopsfor mothers and local communities on safe delivery and maternal

healthcare

- Oversee the essential life-saving work done at Maas Maternal Health Clinics

- Gain first-hand clinical experience of maternal care in urban and rural resource-poorsettings
