We are keen to find out more about maternal mortality in Britain as recent figures show a rise in numbers. We would like to hear from anyone whose friend, family member or loved one died during pregnancy, during childbirth or within a year of pregnancy between 2020 and 2024.
How did they experience it and what treatment or care did they receive? We are also interested in hearing from healthcare professionals and their experiences.
