The first half of the leaflet is good, but the stats are very out of date and English - these should be amended to use up to date Scottish data. There should now be data from the AMUs set up as a result of Best Start about transfer rates and outcomes. I think there should also be Scottish data around home birth transfer rates
2. Is the language and terminology in the leaflet easy to understand?

I think the baby on the cover makes this leaflet look really out of date as it is from the original Best Start 2017. I guess that is deliberate to tie it in with Best Start, but I think it is a very overused and tired image that has the potential to switch midwives off.
All of the photos are of white people - there should be diversity shown
