Any midwives interested in joining me in a service evaluation of BadgerNet Maternity for my Masters? I’m looking for frontline midwives (any band/experience level) for semi-structured interviews lasting around 45 minutes. Take a look at the poster below ☺️

#BeKind is, sadly, often "work as imagined" and not our lived experience. So, whilst we shouldn't have to state the obvious, kindness matters. Kindness makes a difference. And if we need practical ideas to make kindness a reality and embedded ⬇ is good read.

It's hard carving time out for a two-day conference, far from one's home. Really hard. But it's also hugely worthwhile. Time to listen, to learn, to connect. That's why @AIMS_online volunteers will be at #BICS23. See you there, @BICSoc. #ImprovingMaternityServicesTogether
#BICS23 is next month! Will we see you there? We have an absolutely brilliant programme, and will hopefully leave everyone feeling inspired to go back and make a difference in maternity care
