Northamptonshire Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership (MNVP) is a working group made up of women, birthing people and families. The MNVP is supported by local Integrated Care Board (ICB) and maternity services from our hospital trusts. The MNVP is an independent forum which has been set up to listen to and speak for service users who have accessed local maternity and neonatal services.
The MNVP can be contacted by email ([email protected] ), via social media or at our face to face sessions across the county.
We also have an anonymous online feedback form which can be accessed here.
Shareen
Kettering General Hospital Champion
Shareen is the Kettering Champion for the MNVP. I have lived in the Kettering area now for 17 years ago, I have worked in childcare for 15 years and in February 2021 I welcomed my first child into the world, followed by my second born in 2023 both my children were born at Kettering General Hospital. Since having both my children, I took a big interest in everything, pregnancy and postnatal related, and after my own experiences, I want to help improve the services for mums and partners to be.
I love meeting new and familiar faces, if you happen to pop into a group or you see me around I'd be more than happy to discuss any feedback, nothing is too big or small, positive or negative, I'd love to hear about it. All feedback I collect is anonymous, as I know sometimes giving personal information and opinions can be daunting, so please don't worry, we are here to listen.

Zoe
Northampton General Hospital Champion
Zoe is the NGH champion for Northamptonshire Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership.
"I have lived in Northampton for 4 years now with my husband, and in September 2023 we welcomed our son into the world. Since being pregnant I have found a passion for all things pre and postnatal and want to work hard to try and improve the services used from start to finish.
I am often out and about with my son and attend a number of different groups with him throughout the week! If you do happen to see us please don't hesitate to say hello and if you do have any feedback about any services you have used, good or bad, big or small, then I would be happy to discuss this with you. All feedback will be anonymous and no personal information recorded or stored.
We want to make sure everyone is represented from all backgrounds and so my aim along with other MNVP Champions is to hear all voices, even the whispers. Keep an eye out on our page to find out more about ways to help have your say and improve maternity & neonatal services."
