Why We Support #BlackLivesMatter

Writer's picture: Sally KettleSally Kettle

Updated: Nov 28, 2020


We are a foundation for all women who are pregnant or have a new baby.

We know there is discrimination and lack of representation of black women, women from ethnic minority backgrounds and disabled women on boards, panels, research groups and as subjects of research in women’s health.

Black women’s pregnancies are not the same as others’; due to a number of reasons there are risks that should be known, understood and reduced.

We know we can do something about it.

Activity is for the health and wellbeing of all mothers and their babies.

We are and we will always do something about it. It is, in fact, the reason the Active Pregnancy Foundation exists.

We are only just starting out, and there are still many battles to be won, but if you think we’re not doing enough, please tell us.

PLEASE NOTE - Where referring to 'women' and 'mothers', this should be taken to include people who do not identify as female but who are pregnant.

Similarly, where the term 'parents' is used, this should be taken to include anyone who has main responsibility for caring for a baby.
