Drop in the number of midwives joining the NHS in Wales, while the country's birth-ra

The number of midwives joining the NHS in Wales dropped this year according to figures released today by the Royal College of Midwives (RCM).

I can't find the rest of this story?? When I click on more it just goes to the RCM's page saying 'what is RSS?' I've searched the site using the story title but it doesn't come up. Am I being thick?

I cant understand how that happened to be honest. They must have changed / edited the story AFTER publication.... thats the only way our system can get the wrong link..

I've updated the first post manually with the correct one. Thanks for pointing it out.
