@thesundaytimes Maternity services across the country are working hard to ensure women continue to receive the care and support they need. Some things - like certain antenatal appointments - may be done differently, but they are still very much open for business #CovidMaternity

Today marks the end of #WorldBreastfeedingWeek – an excellent time to reflect on midwives going above & beyond to give infant feeding support during #COVID. Great to see work being done by PRUH King's College NHS, incl. a dedicated phoneline staffed by midwives shielding at home

Grateful to all midwifery students who have been a part of the NHS covid response so far. I would now like to keep focused on the continued education of our 3rd years to ensure we have the new midwives we will need, to join our workforce when they graduate later this year.

Today is the International Day of the Midwife. I couldn’t be prouder of the inspiring, committed and courageous midwives working across the NHS to care for mums and babies every day. For everything you do and will continue to do – thank you #IDM2021
