The Conservative candidate for Stafford, Theo Clarke today spoke to midwifery students at Staffordshire University about her work with the All-Party Parliamentary Group on birth trauma. Ms Clarke described her own experiences of birth trauma, before providing an overview of the Inquiry's recommendations. Ms Clarke was particularly impressed by the questions asked by students, ranging from how to involve fathers in the birthing process to queries about how NHS Trusts will be able to implement the recommendations themselves.
