Because Midwifery Matters
About the ARM
Who are we, what do we do and what do we want to achieve?
JOIN US
Join us as a member of ARM to give us a higher profile, raise our voice and protect the midwifery profession.
OUR SUPPORT NETWORK
We have a big support network for midwives and student midwives around the country.
A place for ARM students (prospective students, and some qualified midwives and birth keepers too!) to gather, hang out, co-work and support each other – tell stories, learn things, hold each other in camaraderie, organise, air grievances, share virtual tea, biscuits and hugs. You’re welcome wherever you’re at.

All our magazines and articles in one place
