About MIDIRS (Midwives Information & Resource Service)

MIDIRS – or the Midwives Information and Resource Service – is a not-for-profit educational charity providing effective information resources that help maternity health care professionals or students succeed in their professional development and studies.

No matter what your budget or the stage of your career, MIDIRS has subscription packages that will help you achieve your development goals– whether that is achieving PREP (Post-Registration Education and Practice) requirements or qualifying as a health care professional:

• a quarterly trusted academic journal, MIDIRS Midwifery Digest – perfect for researchers, professionals or students who want to consider topics in more detail.
• a bibliographic and abstract database, MIDIRS Reference Database saves you valuable research time by surveying the entire midwifery landscape for the information you need.

As an educational charity we provide high-quality evidence-based resources at affordable prices. If you are a UK taxpayer and want to help us keep our prices as low as possible, then Gift Aid your subscription. It won’t cost you a penny but will make a huge difference to us. Don’t worry, you can still fill out a Gift Aid declaration if you are already a subscriber.
