Homebirth in Hackney

Anyone have any experience of homebirths in Hackney? My first birth at the Homerton was pretty horrible so I am thinking of having a homebirth. Has anyone had a homebirth and if so which hospital did you use and would you recommend it? I live close to Homerton so if they could do a homebirth would make sense to do it there because if I need to go to hospital for any reason would be easy to get there. Otherwise do UCH do homebirths or any other local hospitals?

Not Hackney, I was Tower Hamlets - so would have gone to royal London if I needed to transfer.
I get the impresssion that TH are MUCH more pro-homebirth than Hackney.

Actually there is a homebirth support group in E3 that would be the nearest to you, where it might be helpful for you to go to talk about this. Would you be interested in that?
