Recent government changes have shifted NHS priorities, removing national Women\u2019s Health Hubs targets. This means that crucial women\u2019s health services, including access to postpartum care, may no longer be consistently funded nationwide. Today, access depends entirely on local Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), creating a postcode lottery for women\u2019s health &#8211; this is simply not good enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there is still hope. Leading the way, Medway Valley Women\u2019s Health Hub has taken action. For the first time, an NHS service has officially commissioned MUTU System to support women\u2019s postnatal recovery and pelvic health. Medway has taken the first step in ensuring women in its region can access MUTU\u2019s <strong>clinically proven, doctor-recommended<\/strong> programme for free. This is a massive step in improving access to essential women\u2019s health services within the NHS\u2014but we need to see more services follow suit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why MUTU?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MUTU System is a globally recognised, doctor-recommended programme designed to help women strengthen their core, improve pelvic floor function, and support postnatal recovery.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This new NHS commissioning means more women can access the care they need without financial barriers, improving physical health and overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Model for the Future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The NHS in Medway Valley&#8217;s decision sets a precedent for prioritising women\u2019s health across the UK. However, this does not mean other areas will automatically follow Medway Valley\u2019s example; we must all continue actively demanding change.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What This Means for You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Right now, only a limited number of women in Medway, Kent, can access MUTU for free\u2014but that can change. Each local NHS trust decides which services to fund through its Integrated Care Board (ICB). If enough women demand and <strong>advocate<\/strong> for better postpartum care, more areas could follow Medway\u2019s lead and help us make MUTU accessible nationwide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How You Can Help Bring MUTU to More Women<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Talk to Your GP:<\/strong> Ask your doctor about MUTU System and why it isn\u2019t available on the NHS in your area. Many healthcare professionals support it, but local NHS trusts won\u2019t prioritise it without patient demand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Write to Your ICB:<\/strong> Your local Integrated Care Board (ICB) decides what services are funded in your area. You can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.england.nhs.uk\/contact-us\/about-nhs-services\/contact-your-local-integrated-care-board-icb\/\">find your ICB and their contact details here<\/a>. Send them an email or a letter explaining why MUTU System should be funded for all women.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Contact Your MP:<\/strong> Your Member of Parliament (MP) represents you and can pressure NHS leadership to expand access. Find your MP and their email address at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theyworkforyou.com\/\">They Work for You<\/a>, and ask them to raise the issue of MUTU funding in Parliament.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Join Advocacy Groups:<\/strong> Organizations like the<a href=\"https:\/\/thepogp.co.uk\/\"> Pelvic Obstetric and Gynaecological Physiotherapy (POGP)<\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.birthtraumaassociation.org.uk\/\"> Birth Trauma Association<\/a> work to improve postnatal care. Supporting and engaging with them strengthens the movement for better services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Speak Up on Social Media:<\/strong> The more women talk about this issue, the harder it will be for decision-makers to ignore it. Share your experience, tag NHS leaders, and demand better postnatal and pelvic health care.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Support Women\u2019s Health Hubs:<\/strong> With the government reducing focus on Women\u2019s Health Hubs, it\u2019s more important than ever to hold local decision-makers accountable. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.england.nhs.uk\/contact-us\/about-nhs-services\/contact-your-local-integrated-care-board-icb\/\">Contact your local ICB<\/a> and ask what they are doing to maintain and expand these essential services.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Medway\u2019s commitment to women\u2019s health is a significant breakthrough, but more work must be done. The government\u2019s recent changes mean that unless women speak up, services like MUTU and Women\u2019s Health Hubs could disappear in many areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The NHS should provide equitable care for all women, not just a lucky few. Demand better. Talk to your GP, contact your ICB and MP, and make your voice heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A personal note from MUTU<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We hear you, feel your frustration, and know how exhausting and disheartening it is to struggle to access women\u2019s healthcare continually, even in today&#8217;s \u2018modern\u2019 society.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We fight for this every day because we believe you deserve better. We understand your anger, disappointment, and urge to vent. Trust us, we feel it, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You shouldn\u2019t have to worry about advocating for yourself, and we can\u2019t wait for a world where you don\u2019t have to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But please know this: <strong>we (companies and innovations like MUTU) don\u2019t decide what the NHS chooses to fund<\/strong>. Securing this small step forward has taken years of relentless effort. We are pushing for more, but change takes time and it needs advocates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Your voice matters, and your stories matter. Your frustration is valid, but directing it at us will not change the system. Instead, take action. The calls to action in this post are how we create real change.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are on your side.
