Families demand accountability after investigation links 55 stillbirths to missed warnings and delayed care at a UK hospital trust.
Families in West Sussex are demanding accountability after a joint BBC News and New Statesman investigation found at least 55 stillbirths at University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust between 2019 and 2023 may have been preventable due to missed warning signs and delayed care.
Two mothers, including a former neonatal nurse, reported repeated concerns about fetal movement and distress, only to be dismissed or sent home despite abnormal test results.
The trust, which has paid £103.8 million in maternity negligence claims since 2021—more than any other NHS trust—maintains its mortality rates are below average but faces criticism over a stalled local inquiry and lack of transparency.
At least 15 families are now part of an expanded independent review, with more grieving parents calling for urgent reforms to prevent future tragedies.
