International affiliates

AMURT UK is affiliated to the following International Organisations that share our mission and philosophy.

AMURT GLOBAL – AMURT’s global coordinating office is based in the US. At times of humanitarian disaster international AMURT chapters liaise with this office to find out how to best support the AMURT chapter closest to where the disaster has occurred. This support may come in the form of fundraising, sending experts or additional volunteers.

AMURTEL Greece

AMURTEL Greece runs the Athens Refugee Mother and Baby Centre. It is the only woman-to-woman maternity service for refugees in Athens. It provides these vulnerable women with pre-natal care and examinations, preparation for labour, post-natal care, and breastfeeding/infant feeding consultations. Most women don’t speak Greek and have limited English. The care women get ensures they receive important medical tests and can ask questions using interpreters. This is vital for theirs and their child’s physical health, and psychological wellbeing.

The application of this woman-centred model of care has proven to reduce the incidence of birth injury/trauma (physically and mentally) and reduce incidences of postnatal depression, as well as enhance chances of early and continued breastfeeding and bonding of mother and baby.
