Petition for a mother and baby unit in Northern Ireland

Hello all, we have been campaigning for a mother and baby unit (a psychiatric unit where mum's can be admitted and receive specialist treatment, without being separated from their baby) in Northern Ireland. It is the only part of the UK without a mother and baby unit.

We'd be really grateful if you could sign this petition, and share it among your contacts, as we'd like to get to 5,000 signatures by this Friday, as we plan to hand in the petition shortly to Robin Swann, the health minister in NI.

Thank you so much,

Ellie
