Welcome to a Journey of Love and Light
I’m Lesley Gough, a Soul Midwife and End-of-Life Practitioner. My heart’s calling is to bring comfort, loving-kindness, and gentle guidance to those on their final journey, while enveloping their family and friends with compassionate support during this sacred time.
Soul Midwifery: A Tapestry of Comfort and Light
As a Soul Midwife I practice the art of weaving comfort, guidance, support, and reassurance into the fabric of a person’s final days. We strive to create an atmosphere of tranquillity and dignity, illuminating the path with love and compassion for both the dying person and their loved ones.

My Journey: From Fear to Compassion
My path to becoming a Soul Midwife began in a moment of profound connection. At 18, working a night shift on a busy Acute Geriatric Unit, I found myself holding the hand of a dying gentleman. His family was en route, facing a long journey to reach him. In that stark, clinical environment, with its harsh lights and sharp scents, we both grappled with our fears – he of his pain and impending transition, and I of my inexperience in the face of such a significant moment.
This experience, though challenging, planted a seed of deep compassion in my heart. It sparked a lifelong commitment to transforming how we approach death, vowing to help people transition with grace, surrounded by love, peace, and gentle care.
Since that pivotal moment, my journey has been illuminated by various therapies and healing practices. Each has added a thread of understanding and compassion to the tapestry of care I now offer. These experiences have shaped my approach to Soul Midwifery, allowing me to bring a holistic, heart-centred presence to those I serve.
