Two Midland hospitals are at the centre of a baby deaths investigation that initially dates back to more than 40 years ago.
More than a dozen women and more than 40 infants died during - or just following - childbirth across Shropshire and Telford Hospitals in what is the NHS’s largest maternity scandal in history. Grieving families have attributed care failures and significant errors made by hospital staff for having their loved ones prematurely snatched away from them.
Now, with the official inquiry report into 1,860 cases of repeated maltreatment at the NHS Trusts to finally be published by former midwife Donna Ockenden next month, the BBC is launching a Panorama investigation into everything we know about the sorrowful scandal so far.
