Please everyone remember that team @sathNHS never intended to cause harm to anyone and may be feeling fragile today. With investment & fresh approach they have turned things around! Let’s use @DOckendenLtd as a learning tool not one to beat our maternity community with 💙💚💜
I urge everyone interested in maternity safety to read this report from @BBCMBuchanan today. The extract below is one of the most chilling things I’ve ever read. bbc.co.uk/news/health-604342…

The latest @mbrrace report looks at maternal deaths and morbidity between 2017 & 2019 in the UK. It shows why the @GOVUK must adopt a target and strategy to end the persistent and harmful unequal maternal outcomes for women from Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. (1/2)
