Lucy Phiri

Lucy Phiri is a registered nurse-midwife working with Barts Health NHS Trust in London, England as a rotational midwife.

Lucy Phiri was born in Katete, Zambia where she trained and qualified as a registered nurse for 8 years and midwife for 3 years.

Lucy worked in a variety of clinical settings. In March 2023, Lucy migrated to London with the hope to broaden her expertise as well as share her experiences.

Lucy was successful in all her exams and the prerequisites in satisfying the Nursing and Midwifery Council and that of her employer to work as a midwife.

Lucy seized the opportunity to join the leadership program for internationally educated nurses and midwives delivered by the Florence Nightingale Foundation (FNF). Lucy was able to attain a certificate after completion of the program as she utilises each opportunity she sees.

Lucy’s interests are continuous learning, maternal health and wellbeing, quality improvement, patient safety and mental wellbeing.

And now Lucy is amongst the first ever group of a pilot study under the Mary Seacole and Me Storytelling program. With each opportunity she finds, Lucy seeks to utilise it to the fullest and not just to her benefit but for patients, colleagues and the community at large.
