'If it were a school, and your child had died, the school would be shut down, people would be put in prison - so why is it ok in maternity care for that to happen?'
Sarah Hawkins, who lost her daughter Harriet, calls for a statutory public inquiry.
'Accountability is huge thing for all the families'

Shame on you NHS
“Some women had felt blamed for their baby's death”. I did not feel blamed. I WAS blamed.
@wesstreeting said the update "demonstrates that too many families have been let down, with devastating consequences".
@wesstreeting my child was killed. That’s more than a let down.

How can I FEEL LIKE MY BABY IS DEAD.......
He is dead, I buried him.....
Not because I FEEL LET DOWN....
I WAS LET DOWN.
Kouper was let down.
I trusted the NHS that trust was broken
I trusted the Chief Exec of NUH that trust was broken
I trusted @wesstreeting that trust broken
You can’t “feel” like your baby is dead, you can’t “feel” like your baby is brain damaged, you can’t “feel” like mothers have been killed… WE DONT “FEEL” LIKE WE HAVE BEEN LET DOWN. WE HAVE BEEN! Time and time again. @wesstreeting@ValerieAmos you are now apart of this “feeling”
