Renaming the Sims’ Speculum – a special Community of Practice with Black Maternity Matters

Date(s):
Thursday 18 September 2025, 2-3pm
Location: Bristol Robotics Laboratory, BS16 1QY and online
Organised by: Health Innovation West of England

Event summary

This hybrid event is open to anyone committed to designing and supporting the change needed to make the renaming of the Sims’ real and lasting. A meaningful step toward decolonising medical language and tools, aligning them with the values of equity, respect, and historical accountability.

We especially encourage participation from professionals and advocates in maternity and neonatal care, health policy, and racial equity.

We hope you’ll join us in person or online and be part of this evolving dialogue and action.
