Congratulations to one of our Kathy Murphy, one of our local midwifery leaders, who was awarded an OBE by King Charles in his birthday honours list.
Kathy, who is director of nursing and midwifery at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, was awarded for her services to midwifery leadership.
It is the second award for Kathy over the past 12 months. Last autumn, she took home the Excellence in Midwifery for Leadership Award.
With more than 40 years’ experience in the NHS, she has brought together the largest maternity service in the UK, employing 820 midwives and supporting the births of 16,500 babies each year.
