About the programme
Mothers in Mind was designed by women with lived experience of perinatal mental health and early motherhood challenges. It equips mums with:
- Practical tools and strategies to support their mental wellbeing

To ensure accessibility, a free crèche facility is available for mums who require childcare support.
