Taking place from 21–27 September 2026, the week will explore the theme “Joy, Justice and Journey” through professional discussions, lived-experience sessions, educational events and community-led conversations.
Perinatal and maternity professionals are invited to learn from Black mothers, examine inequities within care and identify practical ways to provide safer, more equitable and culturally responsive perinatal support.
