Timing is important! Neural tube defects (NTDs) form very early in pregnancy. People who can become pregnant and who are of childbearing age should take 400mcg of folic acid daily to reduce the risk of an NTD should they become pregnant. #InMyFolicAcidEra

Sobering read. But nothing we didn’t really know already. The government and NHS now need to listen to staff and patient more effectively to help guide positive service change. Investment in change is essential!!
