About Birmah

In 2010  BirMAH Outreach is working with three Service providers - St Basils', ANAWIM and SSAFA - to provide free treatment in monthly clinics for vulnerable families and individuals.
 
Two residential clinics will run at St Basils' and SSAFA, Norton House and two monthly drop-in clinics will run with ANAWIM  at Balsall Heath and  Handsworth. 

A BIRMAH clinic in progress

Speedwell Clinic at ANAWIM, Balsall Heath and Handsworth

ANAWIM runs two one-stop shop centres for women who are or have been involved in the Criminal Justice System, having suffered a long history of abuse and trauma in their lives - often from childhood onwards.

 

The Centres offer specified activities as an alternative for women offenders as part of a Community Order.

 

Our clinics aim to support their emotional health by addressing grief, shock, abandonment or major life changes which if left uncorrected can lead to exhaustion and ill health.

Speedwell Clinic at St Basils’ Trentham House

Since October 2006, current work with St Basils’ continues at a supported single mother and baby residential unit, which is a spring board towards independant living.

 

Our aim is to help mothers to regain self esteem and confidence and to promote recovery after childbirth. Feedback from Key workers and Health Visitors has been very positive, especially for post-natal ‘blues’ and mental exhaustion.

 

Remedies work on the mental, emotional and physical levels - to resolve and release trauma and thereby regain optimal health.

 

----------------------------------------


Norton House Clinic

SSAFA/Norton House provides short stay accomodation to enable families to be close to their loved ones whilst they are being treated at The Royal College for Defence Medicine at Selly Oak Hospital.

 

We provide support for residents - at what is a difficult and emotionally challenging time - who may suffer from problems such as sleep disruption and anxiety.

 

Certain remedies can be used ‘at home’ to promote recovery.

 

----------------------------------------

 

Since 2006 we have treated many people  from  0 - 50+ years and feedback has been very positive. All of our 6-month 'pilot' clinics have been extended   and we remain committed to  working  within the community. 
 
Student practitioners are welcomed to gain practical experience in many ways: from helping with fundraising activities to 'sitting-in practice, where appropriate. CRB checks are carried out for everyone working with BirMAH and practitioners provide their own Insurance and Public Liability.
