Miscarriage is the most common pregnancy complication, with approximately 1 in 5 women experiencing at least one miscarriage during their reproductive lifetime. To drive progress in miscarriage prevention and care, Tommy’s established the UK’s first national centre dedicated to miscarriage research.
Tommy’s and the new partnership
The Tommy's National Centre for Miscarriage Research, established in 2016, has played a leading role in advancing understanding of why miscarriages happen and how they can be prevented. Bringing together experts from across the UK, the centre has helped drive improvements in research, care and support for women, birthing people and families affected by pregnancy loss.
Tommy’s mission strongly aligns with our departmental vision of a world in which everyone has access to high-quality, evidence-based women’s and reproductive healthcare.
As a nationally recognised charity with a powerful public and media presence, the partnership will also help elevate awareness and visibility of the outstanding research taking place across the Nuffield Department of Women’s & Reproductive Health.
