Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, (a) what steps he is taking in response to Tommy's recommendation of an implementation Graded Model of Miscarriage Care across England, and (b) what steps he is taking to increase support for people who have a miscarriage in Bromsgrove and the Villages.

Miscarriage can have a devastating impact on women and their families, and we are determined that they receive the support they need. As part of the renewed Women’s Health Strategy, we have committed to closely reviewing the findings presented in the Tommy’s graded model of care study, as part of our broader work on miscarriage care.
