The Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership (MNVP) is a team of women, families,  midwives, doctors and community organisations. Their goal is to assess and help improve local maternity care.

These teams are being formed across the country. Their aim is to support every pregnant person share thoughts and ideas about care they receive. The MNVP listen to your experiences to include you in helping improve maternity care in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

What you can do to support:
