If you’re in any doubt about why #midwives are looking to take industrial action or even leave the profession altogether, read this first person account in @BritishVogue vogue.co.uk/arts-and-lifesty…

The Grim Reality Of Being A Midwife Right Now

“I’ve worked shifts that are more than 15 hours without a single pause. I sometimes don’t eat all day. I always have glucose tablets on hand in case that happens.”

📣The RCM has described the pay award announced for members in England as 'unacceptable'. "This pay award is less than half the rate of inflation and falls well short of what our members need to continue to cope with the rising cost of living" rcm.org.uk/media-releases/20…

Totally agree we need to stop the mass exodus of midwives leaving the NHS. Check this out from @MidwivesRCM buff.ly/3mdQXvG #flexibleworking #retainmidwives #retainmsws speak to you local RCM rep today!

One midwife told me this week her request to work a certain day pattern, were for her ‘truly life changing’. At the moment we are really struggling to retain midwives nationally. Flexible working must become the norm not the unusual.

Replying to @MaternityRde
@MaternityRde @RDEhospitals   Have you seen our new signs on the Centre for Women’s Health’s entrances? They’ve been designed by staff and women as a way to highlight the risks of smoking, especially to pregnant women and babies.
