About this event

On 5 May, midwives worldwide will celebrate International Day of the Midwife. We hope that midwives, maternity support workers and student midwives across the globe celebrate in unison.

Over the past three years, midwives, maternity support workers and student midwives have met extraordinary circumstances and risked their lives to provide excellent care to women and their families. Now is the time to not only celebrate how they’ve been there for our communities throughout the pandemic but to show up for them in calls to the Government to put money where it counts and invest in maternity.   

We will share as much as we can to spread the empowering solidarity of midwives nationwide.

For more information, visit the Royal College of Midwives website.
