Liberal Democrat — Henley and Thame

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 June 2026

Debate

NHS Health Visitors

Contribution

It is not just the number of health visitors that needs to be improved. Women report to me that they have skipped appointments due to negative experiences with health visitors, especially around breastfeeding. Will the Minister commit to improving the training of health visitors, so that women receive the best quality care?
