is a standalone birth centre which is staffed by midwifery teams employed by the Royal
Free London NHS Foundation Trust who work across a number of locations. Because of
this it is difficult to determine the cost for the centre separately. The centre is
the base for three teams that work across the maternity services provided by the Royal
Free London NHS Foundation Trust. The staff are deployed across a number of birth
settings, including home births, Edgware Birth Centre, and Barnet Hospital. Staff
working at the centre also deliver antenatal and postnatal clinics.</p>
