@bt_uk This is shocking. My 94 yr old Nanna with dementia is in hospital so I went to her flat to try and help with her bills - £588 pounds per quarter! This is unethical robbery of the vulnerable 🤯🤯 Everyone in my family pays less than £20 a month for unlimited calls and WiFi

She can't even turn the TV on - £60 pounds for subscriptions she NEVER uses ... she phoned my mum constantly for help, that's it. This quarter bill was 3 x her usual cost but no alert or check in despite my mum being her point of contact as she does not have capacity

This isn’t a mistake, or a bad policy decision, it’s a betrayal of every mother, baby and midwife. On the eve of the @MidwivesRCM annual conference this feels especially cruel and sends a devastating message to the midwives holding the system together.
rcm.org.uk/media-releases/20… Cutting maternity funding from £95m to just £2m is a disaster for families and all midwives and support workers. These funds were crucial for improving safety, staffing, and care. @MidwivesRCM

@birthrightsorg just wanted to make you aware of this thread. I will also be copying you into an email.
Alison please can you introduce me to Louise as I would like to discuss the MNSI recent publication regarding Birthing Outside of Guidance. I have serious concerns about this work as it is causing women and birthing people to fear for their safety 1/5 mnsi.org.uk/publications/bri…

The amazing things that happen when you listen to women. Not just when caring for them but also when transforming maternity services and designing women-led and women-centred care @QuashieMichelle @MidwivesRCM @world_midwives
As many of you may know, I worked on workstream 3: Choice and Personalisation of the Maternity Transformation Programme. england.nhs.uk/mat-transform… We worked for years to develop tools, information and the guidance needed to implement Better Births. 1/8

As women are banned from all sports, sports stadiums, employment & walking without a male chaperone, the only way you will see a woman in an Afghan sports stadium is if she is being flogged, stoned or hanged #ItsJustNotCricket #BoycottTheICC Actions ⬇️ brightonsisters.wordpress.co…

Overall performance in EmONC knowledge & skills was significantly higher for students who were taught by trained & mentored educators compared to those who received training alone.
