Parents whose babies were born at Royal Bolton Hospital can share their memories and experiences at a meeting just for them to shape services for the future.
Bolton Maternity Voices Partnership is holding a meeting on Tuesday, August 22 for families whose children were born in the the neonatal unit.
Many families have fond memories of the care their little one received on the unit and the meeting is designed to share what things meant the most to them.
It’s also a chance to look at what could be improved, for example, balancing the needs of the baby on the neonatal unit and the parent upstairs on the maternity ward can, it is said, sometimes a challenge.

The purpose of Bolton Maternity Voices Partnership is to draw the voices of local families in and bring them together with healthcare professionals with the aim of making the service the best it can be in the future.
