Loraine Pearce, Maternity Bereavement Facilitator, met Health Minister Ann Keen MP to discuss the Why 17? Campaign which aims to reduce the number of preventable deaths—17 babies die every single day in the UK.

Activists at the West London branch of Sands (the stillbirth and neonatal death charity) have also launched a Loraine Campaign to have a Maternity Bereavement Facilitator and a Bereavement Room in every hospital.

They have named the campaign after Loraine because she has made such a huge difference to so many bereaved parents at Chelsea and Westminster.
