Did you know the oldest maternity hospital in the world was funded by... throwing parties? 🇮🇪💃

In 1745, Dr. Bartholomew Mosse knew that to provide the best care for mums and babies in Dublin, he needed the whole community on board. He built a literal ballroom next to the hospital to raise the funds!

Community is EVERYTHING! If you'd like to share your experiences with us to shape the future for maternity care, please get in touch 💜

You spoke, we listened! 👂

After hearing what you wanted to see inside the hospital, we’ve been busy filming some behind the scenes content that we’ll be sharing with you very soon. 🎥

Now, we want to take it a step further. We’re sitting down with our midwives to get your questions answered!

Whether it’s about birth preferences, ward routines, or just meeting the team, we want to help you feel connected and informed.

What do you want to ask a midwife?

Drop your questions in the comments or slide into our DMs, and we’ll get the cameras rolling! 👇

We’re really pleased to be launching our new birth infographic, in partnership with Leighton Hospital Maternity Unit and Leighton Hospital W22 Neonatal Unit

This has been worked on over many months with staff, the MNVP and local families. It’s come from lots of conversations, challenge, number-checking and back-and-forth to try and get it right. As a group, we’ve worked really hard to make sure the information is accurate, balanced and reflects what you as a community asked to see.

We know we won’t have captured everything, and we can’t action every single request, but we’ve done our very best to strike that balance - creating something that feels honest, clear and supportive.

We hope it can be:
• a keepsake for families
• a transparent snapshot of local outcomes
• a helpful tool to support antenatal decision-making

But as always, the people best placed to tell us whether we’ve got this right - or whether something needs changing - are you!

If there’s something you like, something you’d tweak, or something that doesn’t sit quite right, we want to hear from you.

You can share your feedback here:

Thank you to everyone who has shaped this and congratulations to all of our January families.
