Such an important essay on the challenges in smear uptake among women with vaginismus - who are just expected to put up with it like so many other areas of women’s health. There are woman-centred solutions, from self sampling to dedicated clinics. We owe it to women to sort this.

Such an important study and so delighted to be involved with Rachel Rowe and Julia Sanders

Exciting opportunity in Cardiff: Senior Midwifery Manager nhsjobs.com/job/UK/Cardiff…

Thank you to Mary Renfrew who conducted the review into maternity services in N Ireland with integrity and compassion. #midwifery in Northern Ireland

A sensible approach to understanding why hospital based postnatal care rates so poorly … now over to midwives providing antenatal and labour care … the issues are the same … staffing levels just don’t add up to the needs of women and babies…
