The 10 Year Health Plan marks a turning point for maternity care. We're transforming services for the future while improving care for the hundreds of thousands of women who are pregnant today. Getting it right for every mother, baby and family is key.
Three big shifts will change how the NHS works, enabling it to deliver better care for all patients – no matter where they live. From hospital to community. From analogue to digital. From sickness to prevention. Read the 10 Year Health Plan ⬇️.

I welcome the news that thousands more families have benefited from the baby loss certificate scheme since its launch in February 2024. The NHS continues to listen and work with women and their families to improve maternity and neonatal bereavement care in England.

Baby loss certificates offer an important way of providing comfort and support to women and their families who have experienced the terrible loss of a baby in early pregnancy. 1/2.
Over 100,000 baby loss certificates have been issued since they launched last year. We're committed to improving the support for baby loss as we reform the NHS. @WesStreeting heard @KlassMyleene and @mother_pukka share their stories @StylistMagazine.
