Utterly shameful - a sickening betrayal of some of the poorest people. And deeply counterproductive too - as if global security isn’t also dependent on efforts to tackle the climate crisis, global poverty, inequality, and humanitarian needs.

We’re creating an Every Loss Counts report to present to the government – and we need your stories.

If you’ve gone through a loss and feel comfortable sharing your healthcare experiences with us, we’d like to include them in the report.

The National Maternity Safety Ambitions for England expire in 2025. I am supporting @SandsUK and @tommys in their continued focus to save babies’ lives. They have proposed new ambitions that urges the governments across the UK to work together to reduce the rate of: stillbirths,

[Georgia Stevenson @Gstevenson1]

Fantastic to speak to MPs about pregnancy & baby loss this week w/ @SandsUK @tommys colleagues.

The National Maternity Safety Ambitions for England expire next year. Govt must renew the ambitions & introduce a cross-govt programme of work to achieve them https://t.co/wgUyxhr6wE

UK austerity policies have been associated with a striking increase in the number of babies in Scotland being born smaller or earlier than expected https://t.co/mO47hhLRgL

[Tommy's @tommys]

Next Tues, we’re co-hosting a parliamentary event with @SandsUK. The event has a clear aim - to make pregnancy & baby loss the political priority it needs to be.

We need as many MPs as possible to come along to our event. Find your local MP & email them: https://t.co/oEdCjVbz3T

We're speaking to MPs about baby loss in parliament next week. I've just emailed my MP to ask her to attend, can you invite yours? https://t.co/j9mwlTUGHg

[Georgia Stevenson @Gstevenson1]

Reducing variation between neonatal networks and increasing the proportion of care that is delivered in line with guidance must be prioritised as the new government develops its plans for the NHS.

We are delighted to announce the publication of the NNAP Summary Report on 2023 data today! The report contains a summary of findings for this year, national recommendations and more https://t.co/QkHjW0Au3u

[Georgia Stevenson @Gstevenson1]

The report calls for neonatal networks to use NNAP dashboards to monitor local data & develop improvement plans. Departments of Health across GB should ensure use of NNAP dashboards, address supply chain issues & commission public health campaigns about preterm labour.
