Sakina Ballard

Sakina is a Trustee at MMHA and first joined 2017 as a Champion. Having been redirected from her previous career as an actress due to her own lived experience during the perinatal period, she now works clinically and strategically in Perinatal Mental Health at CNWL NHS Trust and her own private practice.

She is passionate about co-production, equity and inclusion and how perceived gaps between service users and services can be bridged for enhanced experiences and outcomes.

She is also a Director at Make Birth Better and a mum to two lovely young humans.
