Ruby Team Midwives - Worcester

10/11/2025

✨ A peaceful night-shift moment at Worcestershire Royal
acute.charity has launched a fundraising appeal to support our maternity services. The appeal aims to provide added extras requested by our families and midwives who know exactly what’s needed for our communities to have the very best possible experience.

This includes -

❤️ 9 additional jaundice monitors so midwives can take accurate, non-invasive jaundice readings and give an immediate answer to anxious new parents.

❤️ 23 buddy beds (padded bedside chairs that turn to fully reclinable beds) so partners can be more comfortable and rested enough to support.

❤️ Improvements to environments across the hospitals, including an extension to our bereavement suites for a dedicated memory making area.

If you or someone you know is in a position to donate, please follow the link in our bio.

We are logging off for the weekend.

For urgent support please call the national breastfeeding helpline on 0300 100 0212. They are open 24/7.

For non urgent enquires, please email us on whcnhs.infantfeeding@nhs.net

See you Monday, have a wonderful weekend.

❤️ Congratulations to Ruby Team Midwife Grace who was awarded Practice Supervisor of the Month!

Student midwives work under the direct supervision of lots of different midwives - Practice Supervisors - throughout their training. Practice Supervisors provide support, learning opportunities, and feedback so that students can become the best midwives they can be.

We’re so proud Grace was recognised for the support she provides. And thank you to the student midwife who nominated her for this boost! ✨

If you’ve been pregnant in the last three years and received care from a midwife in Worcestershire or Herefordshire, this survey is open to you ❤️

Have you been pregnant in the last three years?

Did you pay attention to how much you baby was moving?

Did you feel confident knowing what was normal?

Did you know what to do if something didn’t feel right?

If you had your baby or were looked after by a midwife in Herefordshire or Worcestershire we want to hear from you.

*Update: Closing date extended to Sunday 16th November as we are still receiving lots of responses*
