ARM 50th Anniversary Conference
Midwifery Must Matter!
Honouring our past to shape our future
20th June, 2026
University College, London
About the conference
Our conference will give you a fantastic opportunity to make connections with other like-minded people, take inspiration from ARM’s past and reflect on ideas to address the current threats to midwifery care and improve families’ experiences of birth. You will explore how we can better support women to achieve the birth they want including the importance of physiological birth to achieve safer outcomes. Surrounded by thoughtful and supportive colleagues, we expect you to come away with a more hopeful vision for the future, feeling more confident and positive about how you can make a difference, both individually and collectively – because Midwifery Must Matter! Now more than ever.
