## Notice

The Maternity Workforce Transformation Strategy was developed with partners to support the wider Maternity Transformation Programme to deliver the vision for the future of maternity services, and in particular the vision set out in Better Births, the report of the National Maternity Review; and the ambition of the government to halve the rate of stillbirth, neonatal death, maternal death and serious intrapartum brain injury by 2025. The purpose of the Workforce Strategy is to support maternity services in making changes, whilst ensuring that there is sufficient capacity in the workforce nationally. It aims to do so by supporting and empowering individual teams and individual midwives, doctors and other health professionals, and the organisations they work in, to deliver that vision, and by ensuring that, overall, the NHS in England has the workforce of the size and skill mix it needs.
