Well Mum Community Courses

When a woman becomes a mother, she goes through so many changes and has to process so many feelings. Many times, these feelings can feel overwhelming and women find it difficult to embrace their new identity as Mothers.

We have found through our previous and current work experiences that giving women a chance to talk about their experiences and traumas related to motherhood helps them considerably. By supporting mothers at this early stage, we can help manage depression, anxiety and any other mental and emotional issues a mother is struggling with.

The plan is to run group courses for 6 weeks, providing a safe, non judgemental space for Mums to express themselves freely whilst learning valuable mental and emotional strategies empowering them to lead a balanced and happy life.

Well Mums is a 6 week, in person,  course for women experiencing postnatal depression, anxiety and other mental health difficulties in Worcestershire.

The course is facilitated by Jessy Paston, a New Mum Support Counsellor and Jo Lederer, an experienced antenatal teacher and postnatal wellbeing practitioner.

Over the 6 sessions, women will have the opportunity to explore their emotional health, share their experiences in a safe, non judgemental and supportive environment, and learn coping skills and strategies to help them in their journey to better emotional and mental wellbeing.

We plan to run the first course in January 2017 and we are asking for your generous contributions to help us and our community Mums.

Please support us by contributing to our project. We are passionate about providing a service accessible to all without discrimination and the future aim is for the course to be Countywide. The more funds we can raise, the more courses we can run and the more Mums we can support. Everything received shall be deeply appreciated.
