This interdisciplinary conference is being organized by the Research in Childbirth and Health (REACH) Group, University of Central Lancashire.

The theme for the 2025 conference is: Making Birth Better: Bringing together evidence, knowledge and experience

The multi-disciplinary UK Conference Committee has planned the content of the conference to be wide-ranging in terms of research methodology and subject matter. While the science around physiological labour and birth remains the focus, the conference encompasses international empirical research and care quality initiatives, and debate across the range of pregnancy, labour, birth, and postpartum experiences and outcomes, from a UK and international perspective. Academics, clinicians and others involved in maternity care from around the world will be coming to the UK to disseminate and discuss their study findings.
