Abstract
BME women in Croydon suffer poorer maternal healthoutcomes which affects their lives and the life of theirnewborns. As BME women are categorised within underserved communities, they experience health inequalities such as poorer physical and mental health, reduced enjoyment and overall quality of life in comparison to their counterparts. They are also less engaged in clinical research, making it more difficult to inform healthcare services on how to improve their health outcomes. In recognition of the need for equity, Croydon BME Forum, CBMEF’s Maternity project focuses on addressing the barriers Croydon BME women face when accessing these services.
