All newborns must be valued equally

SIr, – The safe birth of a healthy baby is a cause for celebration everywhere. There are about 350,000 babies born worldwide and about 2,000 in England each and every day, although only one made the front page of most papers round the world.

It is time to celebrate all people and to remember it is not who you were at birth that makes you worthwhile but what you make of your life. The royal Family has done much with Prince Philip’s Duke of Edinburgh Awards and Prince Harry’s work with disabled soldiers with the Invictus Games. It is time to value not just the individual but all births.
