Gloucestershire Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership (GMNVP) is a group of local parent representatives and health professionals which advises the NHS in Gloucestershire on the care provided to women, their partners and their babies, during pregnancy, birth and during the early days after the baby’s arrival.

Our role is to ensure that the views and experiences of people who use local maternity services are listened to and acted upon to continually review and develop the services provided in the county.

GMNVP works together with the local health and care providers and is supported by NHS Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board to help shape and develop maternity services across Gloucestershire.

The MNVP is always looking to recruit volunteers and support our local priorities. Volunteers help us ensure that the feedback received from women and their families informs our plans and service developments. You can find out more about the GMNVP and how to join us by visiting the Gloucestershire Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership website.

GMNVP have a very active on Facebook and Instagram which provides information, support and an opportunity for people to give feedback and have their say on how we provide maternity services in Gloucestershire. GMNVP run a range of events and also host a series of live ‘ask the expert’ chats.
