Mariposa International is delighted to announce that our Founder and Global CEO, Zoe Clark-Coates MBE, has been appointed to the Charity and Third Sector Expert Reference Panel for the New Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce. Convened by the Department of Health and Social Care, the Taskforce brings together leading voices from across healthcare, policy, research and the voluntary sector to help shape the future of maternity and neonatal care across the UK. The Taskforce will focus on improving experiences and outcomes for women, babies and families across all areas of maternity and neonatal care, including safety, wellbeing, compassionate care, equity, trauma informed support and the prevention of avoidable harm and loss. Zoe brings over 25 years of expertise in grief and trauma, maternity and neonatal care, and specialist support for families affected by baby loss. As Founder of Mariposa International and the charity’s primary support division, Saying Goodbye, Zoe has spent decades supporting families, campaigning for change, and working alongside healthcare professionals and government to improve care and outcomes. Zoe co-chaired and authored the Government’s Pregnancy Loss Review, commissioned on behalf of the Department of Health and Social Care. The landmark review led to 73 national recommendations, all of which were accepted by Government, aimed at improving the care and support offered to families affected by baby loss across the UK. That work is ongoing, with Zoe continuing to support the rollout and implementation of the Review’s recommendations, helping to shape policy, practice and national improvement efforts across maternity and neonatal services. Her appointment to the Charity and Third Sector Expert Reference Panel reflects both the depth of her experience and her longstanding commitment to ensuring that families remain at the heart of maternity and neonatal care reform. This will continue alongside her ongoing work as Global CEO of the charity. At Mariposa International, we are incredibly proud to see Zoe’s leadership, expertise and lived understanding recognised through this important appointment, and we look forward to supporting the vital work of the Taskforce in the months and years ahead. #MariposaInternational #SayingGoodbye #MaternityCare #NeonatalCare #BabyLoss #TraumaInformedCare #WomensHealth

The members of the Expert Reference Groups for the National Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce have now been published, and Mariposa International (Saying Goodbye) are honoured to be part of the Charity and Third Sector Expert Reference Group. Zoe @ClarkCoates will be sitting on the panel. Through our involvement, we will continue advocating for women, babies and families, ensuring the voices and experiences of those harmed by maternity care are heard, represented and never overlooked. There is still much work to do, but meaningful change begins with listening, accountability and a shared commitment to safer, more compassionate care for every family. gov.uk/government/groups/nat…

These gentle, hope-filled services are for everyone, and you are welcome to come exactly as you are. Family and friends touched by loss are warmly invited too, and babies and children are very welcome to attend with you. There is no need to book, simply come along on the day. ✨ DUBLIN SERVICE Saturday, 13th June - 7pm Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin ✨ BELFAST SERVICE Sunday, 14th June - 3.30pm St Anne’s Cathedral, Belfast Please share this post so it can reach somebody who may need it quietly, desperately, or unexpectedly today.

Leadership in politics will always change hands. Ministers come and go, priorities shift, headlines move on. But for bereaved parents, for families harmed by failures in maternity and neonatal care, and for those still waiting for safer, kinder care, the need for change never pauses. Over recent years, important progress has been made in recognising baby loss, listening more carefully to bereaved families, and acknowledging the urgent need for improvement across maternity and neonatal services. Those steps have only been possible because countless parents found the courage to share their stories, often at the most painful moments of their lives. As co-chair and author of the Pregnancy Loss Review, I know how deeply families have waited to feel heard, recognised and protected within our healthcare system. As the country reflects on Wes Streeting’s resignation, our focus remains exactly where it has always been, on the women, babies and families at the heart of this conversation. This moment must not slow the momentum for meaningful reform. Investigations, reviews and promises only matter if they lead to safer care, greater compassion, genuine accountability and lasting change. Families do not experience loss or trauma according to political timetables. Their grief does not wait for stability in Westminster. Their need for support, safety and dignity remains, regardless of who holds office. At Mariposa International (Saying Goodbye), we will continue working alongside families, healthcare professionals, charities and decision makers to ensure baby loss, maternity safety and compassionate bereavement care remain national priorities, approached not through politics, but through humanity. Because behind every statistic is a child deeply loved, and a family whose life changed forever. Zoe Clark-Coates MBE Global CEO @SayingGoodbyeUK
