Black women in England face a 2.3 times higher pregnancy-related death risk than white women due to racism and systemic healthcare failures.
Black women in England face significantly worse maternity care outcomes, with a 2.3 times higher risk of dying during or within a year after pregnancy compared to white women, according to a UK Health and Social Care Committee report.
The report identifies racism, bias, and systemic failures in leadership, training, data collection, and accountability as key drivers.
It calls for mandatory cultural competency training for all midwives, informed directly by black women’s experiences, and urges collaboration among the Department of Health, NHS, and professional bodies to address disparities.
