In Your Region

The College has 10 geographical regions and 5 sub-regions. The regions function autonomously and have their own constitutions which align to the national College constitution.

Each of the regional chairpersons are part of the National Board (the governance body if the College) and have a key role in raising regional midwifery related issues at a national level and ensuring that items of national interest to midwifery are brought to the regions.

Each region organises its own meetings and other activities – click on your region to find out more.
