The local Maternity Voices Partnerships, Clinical Commissioning Groups, Local Authorities and the NHS wanted to understand the impact of the changes that were introduced in the first period of lockdown and local restrictions (March 2020 to August 2020) on expectant and new parents and families and so a joint survey was developed. Local engagement was launched in order to gather the views of those using local maternity services at Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust and Mid-Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust. This survey went live on 30 July 2020 and was open for 4 weeks.
