Coronavirus: Aston Villa ground to be used for maternity care

Quote

Aston Villa's football ground is set to become a clinic providing maternity care to support an NHS hospital trust during the coronavirus pandemic.
Villa Park's north stand will host weekday clinics from Monday after some expectant parents "felt anxious" about going into hospitals.
Ten midwifes from the Sandwell and West Birmingham Trust will be based at the ground alongside two support workers.
The trust said the ground was in a "perfect position" for clinics.
