An approximately 30-year-old homeless woman gave birth the night before christmas eve, 23. december, twins on the street in front of one of the most wealthy universities in England in the city of Cambridge. The birth was completely concrete just across the street from the college, Trinity College, which houses many of the wealthy students at the University of Cambridge.

Fortunately, there were random people on the street who quickly came to the birthing woman to help, and called an ambulance. The woman was then together with his newborn twins run to the Rosie Hospital in Cambridge, where both the mother and the children received treatment after the hard birth on the street.
A spokesman from the ambulance service have stated the following to the Cambridgeshire Live:
‘An ambulance was sent to Sidney Street in Cambridge, just before seven o’clock the 23. december in connection with a woman who was giving birth. A woman and two babies were subsequently transported to the Rosie Hospital.’

A witness to the Cambridgeshire Live explained the following about the unusual birth:
– Both the mother and the children were already in the ambulance, as I cycled past. My colleague was the first who helped the woman. Fortunately, was the supermarket Sainsbury’s open, so that my colleague could run for help.
the british newspaper The Guardian has, in fact, according to their research, concluded that Trinity College is the wealthiest college in England.
A collection on the ‘Just Giving’ has in the course of a few days collected more than 200,000 kroner to the homeless mother and her newborn twins.
the Collection was started by Jess Agar, which among other things describes the University of Cambridge as a symbol of extreme inequality. In its justification for the collection, writes Jess Agar, among other things, the following:
‘Imagine you all alone to give birth to children on the sidewalk in front of the richest college in Cambridge. Whether one is religious or not, know most of the christian story of a mother who gives birth to a child in poverty and seeking shelter in a barn. Such is the reality for many of the people who live on the street.’
