Raise statutory maternity pay for parents with mortgage to help with costs

Petition Details

We believe home owners should be entitled to additional support during maternity leave.

Additional Information

Many parents are forced to return to work for financial reasons, which can impact maternal health and infant development. We believe the Government should provide funding to further support new parents with mortgages.
