Dear Mary
Many thanks indeed for your email, and for keeping us informed about the huge project focusing on transforming midwifery education in the U.K.
It is an exciting time, and I know there is a great sense of anticipation and hope that your work and leadership will have a transformative and sustainable impact on the future of midwifery.
The update and reassurance you have provided is so helpful, and I hope you continue to have wonderful support from all quarters. I am always available to help too.
Very best wishes
Sheena

I will only add that I very much hope this debate does not affect your positive and pro-active input to the NMC's Future Midwife project. This is a really important project which will set the standards for the future education of UK midwives. As some of you know, I am leading this work as external advisor to the NMC. Over the past 18 months there has been really positive participation from right across the four UK countries - by lots of midwives and students, and women and advocacy groups, and indeed by many of you - all of which I have really valued, and all of which is helping to inform a transformative new set of standards. The work is currently making good progress through a series of meetings to agree the draft for public consultation (including a helpful discussion at the Panel meeting last week). I'm optimistic that the consultation will be ready to start in early 2019, and the plan is for that consultation to last for at least three months. I'm hopeful that as many of you as possible will contribute your comments in that final stage, either in writing or in person, by attending the meetings that will be organised across the UK, to make these new standards as strong as they can possibly be.
