I launched the Hughes Report a year ago, on 7 February 2024. I never imagined that a year later I would still be waiting for a full response from the government. I am calling on the Government to respond.

Almost one out of every eight phone calls made under the Martha's Rule scheme has led to a potentially life-saving change of treatment, NHS England has revealed.
Merope Mills, whose daughter Martha died from sepsis in 2021, tells #R4Today it's clear the policy can 'save lives'.
