A new mother from Rugeley says her premature son was transferred between THREE hospitals following the downgrading of Stafford's maternity services.

Becky Walker gave birth to Harry at the Royal Stoke 28 weeks into her pregnancy.

He was moved to Stafford and then onto Burton when services at the County Hospital closed.

She says travelling from Rugeley by bus meant she only saw her new-born twice a week.
