Episode Advocacy in action with Five X More
In this powerful episode of Ladies Who Launch, we’re joined by Tinuke Awe and Clotilde Abe, the dynamic duo and changemakers behind Five X More which is a grassroots organisation working to improve black maternal health outcomes in the UK.
What began as a campaign to raise awareness around the shocking statistic that Black women in the UK are five times more likely to die during childbirth than white women has since become a national movement, pushing for accountability, policy change, and equity in maternal care. Through research, advocacy, and education, Tinuke and Clo are changing lives, and the system.
They share the deeply personal stories that led them to launch Five X More, the challenges of grassroots campaigning, and what it means to create lasting change from the ground up. We talk about the power of community, the strength in collective voice, and the resilience it takes to speak truth to power - even when the odds are stacked against you.
Whether you're passionate about social impact, or building a mission-led movement, this episode is a must-listen.
