Maternity Voices Project

Report - 5 March 2020

Healthwatch set up 15 focus groups with mothers and birthing partners and spoke to 96 people across the Frimley Integrated Care System area in order to get their feedback.

Healthwatch Slough was approached by Frimley Health and Care Maternity System to create a project, across five Local Healthwatch organisations (Slough, Windsor, Ascot and Maidenhead, Bracknell Forest, Surrey and Hampshire) which would enable new parents to shape maternity services for the area in the future.

Healthwatch set up 15 focus groups with mothers and birthing partners and spoke to 96 people across the Frimley Integrated Care System area. Most had given birth at Frimley Park Hospital (63) or Wexham Park Hospital (28).
