Birthrights

Who we are

Our Mission

Birthrights champions respectful care during pregnancy and childbirth by protecting human rights. We provide advice and information to women and birthing people, train doctors and midwives, and campaign to change maternity policy and systems.

Our vision is that everyone receives the respect and dignity they deserve in pregnancy and childbirth. Our mission is to be the authority on human rights in pregnancy and childbirth in the UK and use that influence to improve services and practice throughout the maternity system.
