Improve Maternal Mortality Rates and Health Care for Black Women in the U.K.
Gov Responded - 25 Jun 2020 Debated on - 19 Apr 2021 View Ms Nadine Dorries's petition debate contributionsclosed 1 year, 9 months ago
Black Women in the U.K. are 5 times more likely to die during pregnancy and after childbirth compared to White Women (MBRRACE, 2019). We need more research done into why this is happening and recommendations to improve health care for Black Women as urgent action is needed to address this disparity.
Petition Closed
I request a full public inquiry into death of my son, Matthew Leahy. (20 yrs.)
Gov Responded - 2 Aug 2019 Debated on - 30 Nov 2020 View Ms Nadine Dorries's petition debate contributionsclosed 2 years, 7 months ago
Matthew was taken to, ‘a place of safety’, and died 7 days later.
24 others died by the same means, dating back to the year 2000. An indicator that little was done to address the growing problems.
Something went terribly wrong with the NHS Mental Health Services provided to my son.
