Gladstone Marks World Health Day with a Focus on Maternal and Newborn Health 

On April 7, 2025, communities worldwide, including Gladstone, will come together to celebrate World Health Day. This year’s theme, Healthy Beginnings, Hopeful Futures, highlights the importance of maternal and newborn health, which serves as the foundation for strong families and thriving communities. 

The World Health Organization (WHO) has launched a year-long campaign urging governments, healthcare providers, and communities to take action in reducing preventable maternal and newborn deaths and prioritising long-term health and well-being
for mothers.
