Today a few of us have the very great pleasure of swapping our NHS approved sensible flat shoes for something a bit more glamorous in order to support our wonderful team leader, Tanya Ashton, as she attends the British Journal of Midwifery’s Practice Awards 2017.

I know that you will all join us in wishing her the very best of luck tonight where we will learn the outcome of the Midwife of the year short list.

No matter the result she is our midwife of the year and we are incredibly proud of her and inspired by the work she does day in day out, year after year!
