If you are not living in or giving birth in Tower Hamlets, please speak with your midwife or maternity care giver for local courses.

Please only book two tickets per a family and don't forget to cancel if either of you are unable to attend.

There is limited space on these free sessions so you must have a booking to attend.

Our standard practice for events such as this is to make more tickets available than there are seats. We anticipate that we will be able to accommodate everyone that attends on the night but to guarantee your place, please arrive 15 minutes before the session. If not booked on that date or arriving late you will be turned away.
