The Borne Foundation

Borne is a medical research charity on a mission to end premature birth; the leading cause of childhood death and disability worldwide. Every year, 15 million babies are born too soon. We fund pioneering scientific research into pregnancy and preterm birth to give every baby the best possible start in life.

Through groundbreaking projects like the BUMP (Borne Uterine Mapping Project), we’re working to understand what triggers labour, why some pregnancies end too early, and how to prevent it. Our work supports mothers, babies, and families while driving innovation in women’s and children’s health.

💜 Join us as we share real stories, scientific breakthroughs, and the people behind the research changing the future of birth.
