Maternity inquiry chair named in government U-turn bbc.in/4sBMFyC

🔴Breaking News - Appointed as Government's National Maternity Advisor Today, I am honoured to announce that I have been appointed as the National Maternity Advisor to the Government. This role is deeply personal to me. Before I was a politician, I was - and always will be - a mother. Like far too many women across this country, I know what it feels like to come through childbirth carrying both physical and emotional scars. That experience has shaped me, driven me, and strengthened my determination to fight for safer, more compassionate maternity care for every family. Please see my statement below ⬇️



Grateful to @wesstreeting for confirming that Donna Ockenden will chair the Leeds maternity investigation. When I raised this in Parliament, Wes committed to doing everything he can to ensure families get answers. He is doing the right thing by them with this decision. 1/2


The courage and determination these bereaved Leeds families have shown has been truly incredible. Today is an important step towards truth, transparency and change.

Yesterday I spoke to @bbcemt @RobSissons1 about the welcome news of @DOckendenLtd's appointment to the Leeds maternity inquiry ⤵️
