About this Event

Venue: Queens Building, De Montfort University, Mill Lane, Leicester, LE2 7DR

The Student Midwife Experience Festival – covering a range of topics including preparing to be a midwife post qualification; working in a continuity of care model; study and writing skills; sharing your final year project and keeping fit and balancing life as a student.

In addition we will have a survey and some polls on the day, looking at the feedback on what student midwives value or want modified on courses to compare with other student surveys.
