đź’ś A LEGACY OF LOVE, COURAGE AND CHANGE.

Their names will never be forgotten.

At Maternity Engagement Action (MEA), we are incredibly proud to stand alongside Louise Coleman, whose love, courage and determination continue to honour the lives of her cousin, whom she called her sister, Sade Anthony, and Sade’s beautiful baby boy, Sergio.

Louise has turned unimaginable grief into a powerful legacy, ensuring that Sade and Sergio’s names are spoken with love, dignity and respect, while continuing to advocate for meaningful change in maternity care.

Through Louise’s tireless efforts, three NHS Trusts have committed to helping create a lasting legacy for Sade and Sergio. We are delighted to share the memorial projects being developed:

💜 Midland Metropolitan University Hospital: Sade’s poetry etched into glass, ensuring her words, creativity and legacy live on.

🌿 Birmingham Women’s Hospital: Sade and Sergio are being remembered always.

For Sade & Sergio 🕊️

At MEA, we support Black and mixed heritage women throughout every season of the perinatal journey. 🧡

That’s why we’re proud to support The Motherhood Group’s annual Black Maternal Mental Health Week.

Our work continues on the ground, creating safe spaces for women to be heard, informed and supported, while continuously advocating for the real systemic change Black and mixed heritage mothers deserve.

Because supporting mothers means being present for them today, while working towards better experiences for those who come after them.

Excellent work once again đź©·đź©·

Black and pregnant?… now what? 🤰🏾🤎

Finding out you’re pregnant can bring excitement, questions, uncertainty and sometimes a whole lot of “what happens next?”

From understanding your next steps and maternity care to asking the questions on your mind, you’ll have the opportunity to gain practical information and feel supported along the way.
