Petition We want the government to consider copying the Finnish Maternity Package

More details

The Finnish government produce a box that is given to all expectant mothers a few months prior to birthing, it is supplied by the state and contains relevant things to aid you in bringing your new life into the world, it can only be obtained at a particular point in pregnancy from the Health Service to ensure checkups are carried out. Such a project brings an equality to all children (they all start with the same gift from the state) and reduces infant mortality. For more see http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-22751415
