Together we can work to improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of devastating conditions including miscarriage, premature birth, brain damage, genetic diseases and cancer.

Have a look at the statistics:

  • 1 in 18 babies in the UK is born prematurely. This is a rate that has barely changed since the 1930s

  • 1 in 4 babies are miscarried. This rate has also remained the same since the 1930s. No matter how early in pregnancy a child is lost, the parents grief can be terrible

  • 1 in 175 babies is stillborn. This rate has remained almost unchanged since 1995

  • 4,370 women die of ovarian cancer each year

  • 1 in 10 women suffer from Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
