Bedford Council of Faiths

Our speaker, Gabriela Pascari, will talk about her work as a Maternity Social Prescriber.  Gabriala says: “Specifically, my focus is on supporting BAME (black, Asian and minority ethnic) communities where health inequalities were reported. Whether it's guiding individuals to the right services or personally assisting them in making contact and accessing, I am here to help. Also, part of my role is to interact with expecting mothers who may be missing out on the benefits of regular medical checks due to not being registered or not in contact with midwives, to identify barriers that they encounter in engaging with medical services. We work, together with other professionals, on accessibility and reducing the barriers.”
