International Day of the Midwife

May 5, 2020

Today marks an important day in our calendar as we celebrate International Day of the Midwife. This awareness day aims to recognise midwives across the globe and more importantly the fantastic work they do. The day was first observed on 5 May, 1991, and is now recognised crossed across the world in over 50 countries every year.

Our Chief Nurse, Paula Gardner has a special message for all our Midwives across the Trust:

“I would like to say a massive thank you to all our midwives across the organisation especially during these difficult and challenging times. Midwives play a vital role in our Trust and for that we are forever grateful.”
