About MNVP

What is the MNVP?

The Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership (MNVP) is an independent organisation that brings together women, birthing people, families, volunteers, maternity professionals and decision-makers to improve maternity and neonatal care.

We ensure lived experience helps shape services, priorities and improvement work across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.

Our principles

The values that guide our work.

Listening

We hear families on their own terms.

Inclusion

Every community belongs in this conversation.

Representation

Our work reflects the people we serve.

Transparency

We are open about what we hear and what changes.

Co-production

Families are partners, not afterthoughts.

Accountability

We follow through and feedback outcomes.

Trust to Action

Co-production at the heart of improvement.

The MNVP is committed to meaningful co-production and Trust to Action principles. We believe families should be partners in improvement, not simply consulted after decisions have been made.

We are working to strengthen relationships with affected families, volunteers and communities to ensure lived experience directly influences priorities and service development.
