midwife

Little Village, which has hubs in Camden, Wandsworth, Brent, Hackney and Hounslow, receives referrals to its services from local community professionals, such as midwives, who come across families in need.

The review, being led by senior midwife Donna Ockenden, has been prompted by dozens of baby injuries and deaths at the trust.

"For any medication exposure during pregnancy, we like for pregnant individuals to review with their providers, their midwife, their doctor, what's going on and what are the best next steps."

"This provides yet further evidence for the need for a full, independent inquiry into the Leeds trust," she said, believing this should be led by senior midwife Donna Ockenden.

A newly-qualified midwife has landed a job in the hospital where she was born - alongside a colleague who helped care for her when she was a baby.
