Pre-term birth remains the leading cause of death for children under five and has a lasting impact on the health and wellbeing of many who survive.
Specialist care isn't equally available across the country so the Carosika Community of Practice was set up to help close that gap but its funding has now run out.
Professor Katie Groom, Maternal Fetal Medicine Specialist at Auckland City Hospital talks to Susie about the need for more support so Carosika can continue its work saving babies across Aotearoa.
