Whether you are a midwife or a birthing woman (or father), IMUK is proud to be able to welcome you to our new website and the world of independent midwifery practice.

We are busy filling the site with content but hope you already find our new site easy to navigate with lots of interesting and useful things for you to see and read.  Our new ‘Find a Midwife’ facility features a profile page on every single one of our members so you can find the midwife that is just right for you.

News and views from both the organisation and membership will be posted regularly with comment on the most up to date research papers and guidelines.

In the next couple of months, the clients of independent midwives will each have access to a ‘client lounge’ on this website, a forum where they can virtually meet one another wherever they are in the UK and all of our midwife members have access to the lively debates and clinical knowledge sharing of the membership forums.

Being the chair of IMUK has been a hugely rewarding and sometimes challenging role, but without a doubt having the opportunity to be presenting the new face and direction of IMUK on our new website pages has made me the most proud. I look forward to meeting some of you and welcoming all of you to the home of autonomous midwifery practise.

Jacqui
Chair, IMUK
