This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We understand that you are concerned about support for women who have experienced traumatic births, but we are not sure how you would like the current support arrangements to change. Free mental health support, including talking therapy, is available on the NHS. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like Government or Parliament to do differently.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
