Update on Shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals NHS Trust

Thu 13th June, 2024

Our work assessing maternity care provision by Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust concluded with publication of our Report in March 2022 (available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/final-report-of-the-ockenden-review).

As of June 2024 we are setting up connections between the Trust and families affected by the Trust’s maternity care provision. The purpose of this is to help the Trust with implementation of the Immediate and Essential Actions (IEAs) and Local Actions for Learning (LAFL) in our Report. If you want to know more about this, or you are interested in becoming involved, please email us at maternityreview@donnaockenden.com

We appreciate that many families may feel they do not wish to be involved, which is of course perfectly fine. If you would like to be involved you can have as little or as much engagement as you wish. This might include meeting with Donna Ockenden and the team with the Trust on an occasional basis and providing feedback to the Trust from a family perspective. Donna is likely to be in Shrewsbury next in early August 2024.
