A cheque was presented to Michelle Waterfall, supervisor of midwives at Warwick Hospital, on Thursday June 28.

The new birthing unit will allow women to give birth in a more homely environment.

South Warwickshire NHS Trust funded the Â£1.6million costs to develop the birthing centre, but to make the facility exceptional a Â£200,000 fundraising appeal was launched.
