Dear Mavis Thanks for this information.I won't be able to make this confernece, but I have passed the information on to some other midwives who have an interest in that area and might be able to attend. I was concerned about what you were doing as you indicated that things were changing at Sheffield. Hwoever, from the address at the bottom of this email, it looks like the research is able to thrive. More strength to you.
