A graphic of a physician in a white coat examining a pregnant woman's belly. Overlaid text reads: the government must set a target to close the maternal mortality gap.

In its 2024 election manifesto, the government promised to set an "explicit target" to reduce the higher maternal mortality rates facing Black and Asian mothers.

This week, I’m calling on the government to bring this forward.
