Our research
We fund four research centres across the UK - investigating the causes pregnancy loss, as well as researching ways to make pregnancy safer through encouraging lifestyle changes or care. We have hundreds of doctors and midwives working together to improve pregnancy outcome for mother and baby.
Our research network is now one of the biggest in Europe and it is a powerful force for change in the area of pregnancy and antenatal care and treatment.
Thanks to our supporters we are able to give £1,600,000 a year to our four centres, allowing them to investigate the causes and find ways of preventing stillbirth, miscarriage and premature birth.
