Three midwives have been successful in applying for research grants from Wellbeing of Women, it has been announced.
The grants are a result of an ongoing partnership between Wellbeing of Women, the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) and the Burdett Trust for Nursing.
Dr Tracey Mills, Lucy November and Lisa Follows will receive grants.
Tracey, from Manchester University, and Lucy, from King's College London, have won the International Fellowship Award (IFA), while Lisa, from Birmingham University, has won the Entry Level Scholarship (ELS).
Tracey is a midwife with a PhD in obstetrics and her IFA will record the views and experiences of parents and health workers in Kenyan maternity hospitals after stillbirth. Her research will be used to improve care for families that suffer a stillbirth and to improve the education of professionals.
Lucy is an experienced clinical midwife with a Masters in public health. She will explore the contributing factors to high maternal mortality in adolescents in Eastern Freetown. Her aim is to develop strategies for these young women to help reduce risk.
Lisa will look at the impact on community midwives of early discharge after birth. The project will cover what community midwives feel needs improving and how they can make better use of the resources available.
The aim of the IFA grant is to enable midwives to develop research interests in maternity services, pregnancy, childbirth and women's health from an international perspective.
The ELS grant aims to help a promising midwife gain research experience and take a step forward in launching a clinical academic career.
