To raise the profile of mesh and the plight of mesh injured women, campaign for compensation for mesh-injured women, advocate for the use of mesh only as a third line of treatment once conservative methods have failed and when non-mesh surgery has failed, and campaign for a continence care pathway with physiotherapy at its heart to ensure pelvic floor health is prioritised.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
