Maternity Booking Times Survey

The following voluntary survey should take around 5-10 minutes to complete.

Results are anonymous and will go towards a wider study around Maternity Booking times in Bury. If you wish to stop the survey at any point you can do and your results will not be included.

Healthwatch Bury are interested in understanding the experiences of women who have given birth in the last three years. We are especially interested in women who did not have their booking appointment till they were 13 weeks or more pregnant.

The survey is aimed towards either those who live in Bury or who are registered with a Bury GP. If you would like support in completing this survey please contact: 0161 253 6300.
