Welcome to Humber and North Yorkshire's Maternity and Neonatal Voices
We are a parent-led, independent advisory group of maternity and neonatal service users and professionals who work together to help to improve local maternity and neonatal care experiences. We do this by listening to women, their partners and families, and involving them in developing and changing services.
Our Vision
For maternity and neonatal services in Humber and North Yorkshire to be kind as well as safe for all, by supporting and enabling our teams to consistently provide personalised, supportive and informed care, with empathy, understanding and compassion.
About Us
Humber and North Yorkshire Maternity and Neonatal Voices Group is a network of Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnerships (MNVPs) of service user representatives and health professionals working together as part of the Humber and North Yorkshire Care Partnership's Local Maternity and Neonatal System (LMNS) to enable everyone accessing maternity care to have your say about changes to maternity and neonatal services across our area. If you need advice during your maternity journey in different formats, please see this section.
We cover the hospitals and community services across Goole, Grimsby, Harrogate, Hull and East Riding, Scarborough and York.
Our MNVP groups are Harrogate, Hull and East Riding,
North and North East Lincolnshire, and York and Scarborough.
Our service user representatives include people who have recently used local maternity and neonatal services, those with an interest in improving maternity and neonatal care, and others who work with pregnant and new parents, for example providing antenatal classes, doula services and other support.
