Are you a nurse and fancy a career change - NHS Highland have allocated spaces in this post grad course from Napier Uni - would be great to have additions to the midwifery family in Highland

I cannot stress how important this organisation has been during COVID in NHS Highland - please if you can support in any way get in touch with them - they are just an amazing organisation to deal with

Very sobering read 😒jrf.org.uk/report/poverty…

David Attenburgh speech to #COP26 yesterday was something special. We all have the power to make a difference and breastfeeding your baby can be part of improving our future

As young people prepare to March at #COP26 , we thought this was a great opportunity to share the work that we had done raising awareness of breastfeeding with our school pupils and wanted to share this wee video from 2015 youtube.com/watch?v=TjOA-b…

#COP26 continues into the final week and this week we will share with you some environmental factors that influenced NHS Highland The Highland Council women to breastfeed.

Jen really summed it up with her choice on how she chose breastfeeding #COP26 "no unnecessary packaging, no heating required and no manufacturing emmissions"

#COP26 following on from yesterday Erin chose breastfeeding due to "no packaging, no electricity, no waste, no water usage, no need for bottles/sterilising equipment, no need for heating, no transportation or processing"

#COP26 Local mum Lucy spoke about how beneficial exclusive breastfeeding was in delaying her period returning and how it reduced her need for period products. Thanks Lucy :)

"99% of pregnant women in Scotland who caught COVID-19 and were admitted to intensive care were unvaccinated" Please if you are pregnant, thinking of getting pregnant or breastfeeding seek evidence based information about the COVID vaccine.

When you are preparing for a presentation and audit the wonderful ante natal facebook breastfeeding course to find that during COVID requests from women to take part in the course doubled and now trebled from 2018 data :)

"I wanted to get in touch with you to sing the praises of amazing Lana who has been an incredible source of support and knowledge.She came to see us at very short notice the day after we got back from hospital. She arrived with a cabbage, a packet of hob nobs in and a big smile!"

COVID is not going away - if you are pregnant and have not had or considered the vaccine please have a look at this video
