BSUG joined RCOG and 48 organisations in a joint letter calling for commitment to ensure women always receive the quality healthcare they need.

On the eve of International Women’s Day, we are joining the RCOG and 48 other organisations, in an open letter to the UK government, to call for concrete commitment to ensure women receive the quality healthcare they need throughout their lives.

The UK Government was elected on a manifesto promise of prioritising women’s health and yet only 5% of women think the government is treating women’s health as a priority, with nearly half (46%) of women finding it difficult or very difficult to access the health services they need when they need them.

We understand that this government is operating in a challenging fiscal context and that difficult decisions must be made, however investment in women is investment in society as a whole - and we urge the UK government to take women’s health in to account when considering the upcoming Spending Review, and the 10-Year Health Plan to follow.
