Whether you’re expecting a baby, adopting, returning to work, supporting a partner, or managing someone through maternity leave, this space is here for you. We’ve pulled together informal guidance, practical tips, and shared experiences to help you feel supported at every stage of the maternity journey.
At the top of the page, you’ll find links to advice on starting conversations, preparing for leave, returning with confidence, and how to support colleagues or partners during this time. While this page isn’t formal policy, we’ve linked to all the relevant guidance so you can easily find what you need.
This is a space for everyone — because good support during maternity and adoption leave benefits individuals, teams, and the wider workplace.
If you’re a medic, you can find additional support on the Medical Education Directorate Maternity, Paternity and Parental Leave Information Hub.
