‘At the heart of midwifery’ is a film we created with NHS England and CapitalMidwife to share what it means to be a midwife in the NHS and the impact midwifery teams have on women and birthing people.
These real life stories help us to pause and remind us of the midwifery values – that at the heart of midwifery lies compassion, kindness, skills and the ability to meet the diverse needs of every individual.
Thank you to the families, student midwives and midwives for sharing their experiences and whose words are heard in this animation.
