Hi Denise I'm a Committee member of the Launceston Birth Centre and yes it is still community run. We have a very committed group of people who are determined to ensure that women still have birthing choices. There are a number of midwives associated with the centre who are employed by the clients. Unfortunately, the number of midwives available has been impacted upon by the lack of professional indemnity insurance. The few midwives who continue to practice do so without insurance, however their clients are fully informed of this.
I know your email was addressed to Terry, however, I haven't seen a reply yet from her. I hope this is the information you were after. Let me know if you need more.
