Having had two girls I know first hand the importance of support during the life changing event of having a baby. Postnatal depression is rarely talked about and like most mental health issues gets pushed to the side and misunderstood.
Mothers for Mothers are a Bristol based charity helping support mums that are dealing with extreme distress or postnatal depression. The work they do is invaluable and can really be a lifeline to those mums that feel life is just too hard.
Depression can be debilitating and the overwhelming emotion that comes with having a new baby to care for can leave mums feeling isolated and anxious. Postnatal depression is far more common than you may realise.
As a charity mothers for mothers gratefully receive any donation you're able to make. Please help them continue to support our local mums in their amazing journey into motherhood.
