    We would like to apologise that women are not mentioned in our recent safer sleeping guidance. This was a huge oversight on our part, especially as we are committed as an organisation to ensure that women are never erased from the narrative around pregnancy & birth. @millihill

    MISSING: It's 5 days since we wrote to @SteveBarclay to ask him to meet with us, our #midwives and #MSWs. Still no word from him, not even an acknowledgement. So, if you happen to see him, could you let him know we're dying to hear from him? #StillNoSignOfSteve

    "#Brexit would hit the British economy hard, meaning less money for public services like the #NHS. Less money for the #NHS means we can’t train & hire the #midwives and maternity support workers we need. That’s a big part of why the #RCM is against Brexit," says @GillWaltonRCM

    These accounts have been reported to Twitter and to the police, as have others. We will not stand for this vile and hateful abuse and will always call it out. We will continue to provide evidence-based advice that #pregnant women can trust. #IStandWithGill

    Since the pandemic began, we have worked hard to get the best advice and support to our members and to pregnant women. Yesterday, after our call to #pregnant women to get vaccinated, our CEO Gill Walton was subjected to threats and abuse, of which this is a small selection

    It was great to officially open our new headquarters this week. Having the RCM’s Patron, The Princess Royal, and The Duchess of Cambridge here to mark the occasion made it even more special buff.ly/3keqRrP @RCObsGyn

    Thanks @VictoriaPeckham. It was an oversight in the drafting, but this isn't about excuses, it's about putting it right.
