Help improve maternity services

Join a group who help make sure services provided to pregnant and new parents are appropriate.

The Maternity Services Liaison Committee

This is a group of parents, volunteers and health professionals who meet regularly to:

make sure the services provided to pregnant and new parents are what they want and need.
listen to the views of people who use the services and make sure they are passed on to the health professionals who provide them.

Who is on the committee?

Local women who are expecting a baby or who have had a baby recently.
Partners of women who have had a baby in the past three years
Members of other voluntary groups who support pregnant women such as the National Childbirth Trust
People who work for the public health team in Lewisham and NHS South East London
Healthcare professionals from Lewisham’s maternity unit and the local community

How much time would I have to give up?

The committee meets every two months in the Lewisham area and a crèche is provided. The meetings are usually held in the daytime and last for approximately two hours.

How do I find out more?

We want to make Lewisham maternity services as good as they can be – and with your help we can achieve this. If you want to find out more about the MSLC, contact us on 020 8333 3355 or email mslc.lewisham@gmail.com
