Maternity Facts – January and February 2026 💚

Dear Families, we are currently trialling a new approach in the way that we present our maternity facts. To help avoid assumptions around extremely pre-term babies, who's circumstances can be very different, we will publish the largest and smallest full‑term birth weights. This helps us to minimise any confusion or preconceptions. Pre‑term babies are still represented in all other parts of the infographic. As always, we welcome any feedback
Head over to our website for previous months ☺️

If you have been listed for an Ambulatory procedure, you may not need to attend a separate pre-operative appointment. Instead, we are introducing a new Digital Pre-Op Assessment Form for you to complete online in your own time.

How it works:
• When it’s time for your pre-op, you’ll receive a text message with a secure link to the form
• You’ll need your NHS number to complete it. You can find this on the NHS App, on previous NHS letters, or by contacting your GP
• Once submitted, our Pre-Op Assessment Team will review your form. If everything is in order, you’ll be added to the waiting list for your procedure.

Need help?
If you have any concerns about completing the form online, please speak to a member of staff at your appointment or call 0151 702 4476.

It’s Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, and this is your reminder that knowing the signs really does matter. 🎗️
Ovarian cancer can be difficult to spot early because the symptoms are often vague, easy to dismiss, or mistaken for something else.
That’s why awareness matters so much. Not to frighten people, but to help them recognise when something doesn’t feel right.
The more we talk about it, the harder it is to ignore.

Join Our Big Conversation to share your views on our new five-year strategy, which uses population health data to set out how services and the way they are delivered can be shaped to meet the needs of people today.

This is a once in a generation opportunity to make bold changes and transform services for the communities we serve.

The strategy is ambitious and rethinks how and where care is delivered, to improve the health and quality of lives of the communities in Liverpool and the wider city region.
