📱 Over 150,000 babies have been born in the UK since the outbreak of the pandemic, and midwives have been embracing new ways of communicating with expectant mothers, through video conference appointments.
👏 Over the past few weeks, hundreds of student midwives have voluntarily stepped into clinical roles, and retired midwives have rejoined the front line to support their colleagues as they care for pregnant women and new babies at a time when they are especially vulnerable.
🍼 To mark the International Day of the Midwife, The Princess Royal, Patron of @MidwivesRCM, thanks midwives across the UK for their great care and compassion in these difficult times. #IDM2020
We've had a great event with @OUCymru today, exploring what the future holds for the education sector. But don't just take our word for it!
Alison Walker from Swansea Uni believes that #BraveNewWales has far surpassed her expectations.

No. I don't think we listen enough to learners for a start. And we need to be brave and radical and invest in the future.
#BraveNewWales: Challenges for lifelong education in changing times.
How will automation, longer life expectancy and more career changes affect how we learn throughout our lives?
Our event with @OUCymru will be tackling the big questions this morning...
