First day of the @councilofdeans Aspiring Leaders Programme. Met lots of new people to expand my networks in higher education across the UK and had lots of excellent discussions. Really excited to start to get involved in the Strategic Policy Groups and a project.

We're recruiting! We're looking for passionate and enthusiastic midwives to join our academic team to lead and inspire the midwives of the future. lnkd.in/e5FN24Mx lnkd.in/ebw6UWPJ

I feel very grateful to have been accepted onto the first cohort of the Council of Deans of Health ‘Aspiring Deans’ programme. Really hoping to fly the flag for midwives and midwifery educators and advocate for the profession I’m so proud to be part of.

Very proud to say that my wonderful colleagues at @UniofStaffs have nominated me for this @MidwivesRCM award and I have been shortlisted. Extremely grateful to be on this list with these other amazing midwifery leaders, and especially as a midwifery education leader now

MIDWIVES! It’s not too late to place your vote with the @MidwivesRCM #VoteAlexBirch #rcmelection2025

🔷 I’m standing for election to the RCM Board because I believe in a future where midwives are respected, supported, and empowered. 💙 Let’s shape a stronger, more sustainable future — together. 🗳️ #RCMElection2025 #MidwivesLead #VoteForAlexBirch @MidwivesRCM
