Karen Fornos Klein
My name is Karen, and I live in Ash Vale, Surrey, with my husband and Dobermanns. I work in a charity where we help refugees, asylum seekers and low-income people to start their careers in the Tech Industry.

I've spent the past 20 years supporting people and communities through life’s various stages. My professional journey has led me through women's health and ITU nursing, craniosacral therapy, energy work, and hospice chaplaincy. Today, I'm here for you as an End-of-Life Doula. I use all this experience to walk alongside people as they find ways…
Rachel Freeman
On leaving school I trained as a nurse and learnt that my interest lay in people’s health rather than ill health, the experience has stayed with me and has merged with other career paths. After a few years of globetrotting and cultural discovery I settled back in the UK and trained as a dancer specialising…

I live with my wife and our dog Molly in the middle of the North Pennines, on the border of County Durham, Northumberland and Cumbria.

Clare Fleming
Witnessing hospice care and experiencing loss moved me to explore the privilege and honour of accompanying someone contemplating or nearing the end of their life. With a background in television production, I have taken gentle steps to learn and develop the approach and skills of a doula supported by the extraordinary training that Living Well…
Rebekah Domer
Caring for others has been the bedrock of my life from young on. I cared for my sister, who had Down Syndrome, for my first twenty-seven years until she died in my arms at the age of twenty-eight. I then went on to accompany my mother until her death from cancer, after which I became…
