Series 12 - Episode 10: Anti-oppressive practice in midwifery and maternity services

As we come to the end of Season 12, we have an opportunity to reflect on oppression in midwifery practice and maternity services and how we all, as individuals, can reflect on our own attitudes and behaviours in order to counter bias and address social injustice, exclusion and discrimination.

We are delighted to welcome Alys Einion who will guide us through the complexities towards improving our practice and our relationships with women, families, and the whole healthcare team
