Grieving Father's Question Uncovered UK's Biggest Maternity Scandal

It all started with a single message. Gary Andrews, who had lost a child, sent a text to another grieving father, Jack Hawkins, asking: "Do you want to talk?" This exchange became a turning point, uncovering deep-rooted problems at Nottingham University Hospital's maternity services. A review found that 260 infants died or suffered serious injuries due to "deep-seated, systemic and longstanding" failures. It is considered the biggest maternity scandal in NHS history.
