We are committed in supporting you. We understand and value that each of our midwives are individuals. With individual needs, motivation and aspiration.

Alongside this, you will also have support from our Professional Midwifery Advocates, through Restorative Clinical Supervision, group and 1:1 sessions. You will also have access and support through our well established Employee Wellbeing Service, training, development and other learning opportunities that you may choose to access as part of your personal development.
