Delighted to present at the southeast NHS England event on support 4pregnant & postnatal black, Asian & minority women & communities alongside eminent colleagues including: Scott Durairaj Jenny Hughes @gulnarirani Michelle Cudjoe great e.g’s of targeted care & co-production with MVP


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


Elsewhere midwives in Tower Hamlets Tower Hamlets GP Care Group Tower Hamlets Baby Feeding Service have used frequent video appts, kept tongue tie services running and have partnered with children’s centres to provide evidence-based resources and information to women through virtual groups.


And then committed student midwives at Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust have helped provide 24 hour infant feeding support on postnatal wards. Some great work all over. Let me know what else you’ve been doing where you are! And check out more on #WBW2020 from World Health Organization (WHO). x.com/WHO_Europe/sta…
