One of my favourites! Re-visiting Day 11 of our 2019 #MatExp#MindNBody advent series. Using creativity and crafts to help people with #MentalHealth/#PerinatalMentalHealth challenges – relaxing and chatting together as they create something wonderful with fab @ShinePNDsupport!
Thanks to everyone who joined the #ConversationSpace this morning..what a great chat!
It's brilliant to be part of this thriving community & to create space to talk honestly & openly about experiences of setting up & growing a VCS service in #perinatalmentalhealth.
We're excited to get stuck into Maternal Journal by @godfrey_isaacs and @missmcgowan. It's all about supporting positive maternal mental health through pregnancy, birth and early motherhood. Great list of 50+ collaborators sharing their skills to help mums on their journey!
We'd love for you to join us next week Thursday 9th September at 10:30am for our FREE virtual Conversation Space Event for the #PerinatalMentalHealth VCS community - grab your ticket through the link below https://t.co/axpZrr15Wr
Yesterday we walked on fire! A group of incredibly brave #PND#WARRIOR mums invoked their #innerphoenix, walked with empowering strength with a release of demons & acceptance of their own #strength! Our page is still live and we would love to raise more! https://t.co/b8yIswaZdd
A HUGE GIGANTIC THANK YOU! To this incredible woman! Sarah Fellows, our physio, Pilates instructor & postnatal health expert completed her first ever #ultramarathon 53 km!! It was emotional, it was painful, but she DID IT!
Sarah raised an astounding £1,800 for Shine PND Support!
Tomorrow evening, Bristol dads’ meet up, we know the football is on but if you’d welcome some support for your mental wellbeing, related to pregnancy & new parenthood, we’ll be there regardless! Pop Adrian an email for info. #dads#mentalhealth#support
We’ve created a community space in Fairford. A place for reflection. Peace. Wonder. It’s bean a brilliant project which has been received with such love and thanks. Hooray for magic Beans… Wellness in action! ❤️
Today is International Fathers Mental Health Day.
Research has shown that 1 in 10 new dads may experience mental health problems in the postnatal period.

Very excited to have the few podcast interviews set up! I'd love to schedule some in to cover the following
* LGBT parents
*Addiction and parenting (can be anonymous)
*Tokophobia
*Post adoption depression
*Young mums
Any suggestions welcome too!

Couldn’t agree more.
I think people find it really hard to imagine what an infant MH service is and how it helps. We all need to fill in those gaps- services can work on parental mental health or parent child relationship through play, therapy or education.

Be part of research, empower women, and support other new mums who may be experiencing symptoms of #PND. In partnership with Melodies for Mums, @KingsCollegeLon are looking at the effects of group singing on the maternal mental health of new mothers. https://t.co/KjckbXs3da
Such a welcome recognition of mental health & early years. Supporting families with #perinatalmentalhealth challenges is so critical to this & access to services rooted in local communities is vital.
As someone who has had to use emergency services in the past due to #MentalHealth SIM seems deeply concerning and does not reflect #traumainformed#compassionate care. Glad to see this being investigated.
