Help shape and improve your local maternity services by joining the Hampshire Maternity Neonatal Voices Partnership!
We’re a friendly, independent group of parents, parents-to-be, midwives, doctors, community organisations and local health leaders. Together, we make sure the voices of families are at the heart of improving maternity and neonatal care.
We do this by:
- Listening to families about your experiences of pregnancy, birth, and postnatal care
- Gathering feedback at baby groups, community events, and online
- Working together with Hampshire Hospitals staff to act on your feedback and improve maternity care for local families.
This year, you’ve told us these areas matter most:
- Postnatal care on the ward
- Feeding support – in the early days and beyond
- Access to the Birth Reflections service
- The new Winchester Birth Centre
- Trauma-informed care
- Listening to neonatal parents and reaching underrepresented groups
We support families using maternity and neonatal services at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust — Andover, Basingstoke and Winchester — serving north and west Hampshire (this does not include the cities of Portsmouth and Southampton).
We’d love to hear from you! You can:
- Share your experience of pregnancy, birth, or postnatal care (good or bad – it all helps!)
- Join a meeting or feedback session – these are advertised on our Facebook page and via our mailing list.
- Contribute to project groups on specific topics
- Help us gather feedback from other parents at local baby groups and community events
If you’re pregnant or have recently given birth at Hampshire Hospitals, we’d love to hear from you.
