An investigation into shortcomings in maternity and neonatal care in England is seeking evidence from women who have been pregnant or from people who have supported someone through pregnancy.

Baroness Amos is asking women and families across England to share their experiences of maternity and neonatal care through a public Call for Evidence. Responses to the Call for Evidence will be used to inform the National Maternity and Neonatal Investigation’s findings and recommendations.
The Call for Evidence is open for 8 weeks from 20 January until 17 March 2026.
There are two Call for Evidence surveys available:
- One for women and people who have been pregnant to share their own experiences of maternity and neonatal services.
- One for other people to share their experiences supporting someone through pregnancy. This could include fathers, non-birthing partners, family members, friends, or other support people.
You must be aged 16 and over to respond. If you are under 16, you must complete the Call for Evidence with somebody who is 16 or over.
