On World Maternal Mental Health Day, we are pleased to support Maternal Mental Health Alliance's #MMHAdvocacyDay and join their call for MPs to value new and expectant mothers’ mental health as much as their physical health.

Get involved: maternalmentalhealthalliance.org/advocacy-day #StrongerTogether #WMMHD24

Maternal or perinatal mental health problems are more common than you might think, impacting at least 1 in 5 mums. But with the right care, it's possible to recover and even thrive!
