North West London Child Death Review TeamÂ
The North West London Child Death Review Team (NWL CDR) comprises of 3 Specialist Nurses,

after the wrongful conviction of 3 women for the deaths of their babies. The process started in 2018, and aims to improve learning as well as the experience of bereaved parents.
