Who We Are

We’re a Black-led UK charity challenging racial inequalities in maternity care.

Black Blossom Alliance (BBA) is a newly‑formed, Black‑led UK charity working to end the stark maternal health inequities Black women face. With Black mothers still four to five times more likely to die in childbirth than their White counterparts, our work is urgent and unapologetic.

Our work spans community care, professional training, advocacy, and storytelling — all driven by the voices and experiences of Black women. We are unapologetic, urgent, and rooted in collective healing and transformation.
