Local Maternity and Neonatal System 

The Local Maternity and Neonatal System (LMNS) is a partnership of organisations, women and their families working together to deliver improvements in local maternity services.

Humber and North Yorkshire (HNY) LMNS supports women, birthing people and families across the Vale of York, Scarborough and Ryedale, East Riding of Yorkshire, Hull, Harrogate, North Lincolnshire, and North East Lincolnshire.

Women and birthing people in these areas are likely to receive the majority of their maternity care through midwifery services and obstetric consultant care through one or more of the following hospital Trusts:

York and Scarborough Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust                  

Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust                                                                                                                             

Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust                                                                                                            

Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust

Some women, babies and families with special requirements may need to travel outside this area. 

On the HNY LMNS site Local Maternity System - Home you can find information about local maternity services, general pregnancy and birth advice, and information on more specialist services including post-natal mental health services.

There is a professional's page with information about local courses and training.
