Quote:
β€˜The decision to suspend home birth services in Gloucestershire is to be challenged in the High Court.
Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Trust announced the suspension in November after staff raised concerns over late working.
A coalition of women and professionals is taking the trust’s leaders to judicial review, claiming health chiefs are ignoring a legal obligation to provide home birth services - which they say is part of women’s human rights.
The trust said its decision is based on clinical evidence showing a risk to the safety of patients or staff. A spokesperson added: β€œWe are committed to reinstating a safe and sustainable home birth service as soon as possible.”

Tomorrow we meet outside council offices Shire Hall to show that we care about LAWFUL & SAFE birth services in Gloucestershire Royal and Cheltenham General Hospitals.

Chief Executive / Councillors meet to scrutinise the Trusts actions - but what scrutiny is taking place?

Now Litigation will begin, because HOSC failed in their Duty - the Trust is failing in it's duties. There has been no transparency, just unjustified claims of safety, used to mask decisions being made about women's birth choices behind an iron curtain.

All the while intervention rates are rising sharply, along with an increasing maternal mortality rate.

This current paradigm is harming women and babies. We know that continuity is the best protector for women, babies and midwives.
