Sands is a charity speaking up about pregnancy and baby loss, saving babies’ lives and supporting bereaved families.

Suicide&Co is a national charity with the purpose to support those bereaved by suicide and open-up the conversation around suicide-related grief to prevent mental health deterioration after the trauma of losing a loved one to suicide. Our vision is to provide adults bereaved by suicide in England and Wales with timely and effective support, because everyone deserves to feel like they have permission to grieve.

Support 2gether is a charity in Northern Ireland supporting families who live with antenatal and postnatal depression. The charity is driven by people with lived experience and provides support groups within rural communities, one to one support via home visits and telephone support. Support 2gether is passionate about educating the public and future parents. We do this by working in partnership with others and raising awareness through antenatal classes and workshops.

The Birth Trauma Association (BTA) was established in 2004 to support women suffering from Post Natal Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or birth trauma. We are not trained counsellors or therapists or medical professionals. We are mothers who wish to support other women who have suffered difficult births and we aim to offer advice and support to all women who are finding it hard to cope with their childbirth experience.

The BTA is the only organisation in the UK which deals solely and specifically with this issue. We aim to tackle the problem with work which is focused on three main areas:

(1) Raising awareness of birth trauma

(2) Working to prevent it

(3) Supporting families in need

The Hearts and Minds Partnership is a collaboration of two England-based perinatal mental health charities and MMHA members: Acacia Family Support in the Midlands and Smile Group in the North West.

The Hearts and Minds Partnership focus on:

• The creation of an England-wide interactive map of quality VCSE perinatal mental health services, to enable signposting to parents and healthcare professionals
• The development of trusted spaces to share learning, make new connections and talk about the challenges we collectively face
• The creation and delivery of dedicated training to support the practical realities of growing, developing and sustaining a VCSE perinatal service.

At The Mental Health Hub by MeYouWellbeing, our core belief is that mental health is just as important as physical health and that we all need mental health support. Whether that's because we're going through a mental health crisis or whether it's because we simply need to unpack things from our past. The Mental Health Hub by MeYouWellbeing prioritises mental health support which is accessible, trauma informed, culturally appropriate and free from financial, administrative or technical barriers.

Our goal is to be the number one provider of equitable, free (or low cost) mental health support in the UK. We actively work to ensure we meet the needs of service users from diverse backgrounds and have multiple layers and strategies in place to capture potential vulnerabilities so that they can be addressed and accommodated. We understand mental health intimately with the majority of our team coming from direct lived experiences. Our service users come from all faiths, heritages and countries, and are matched with therapists within 10 days.

The Motherhood Group connects mothers through events, workshops and meet-ups. They create a safe space for mothers to share challenges, triumphs, questions and advice on their personal motherhood journey, and provide support and encouragement.

Our charity and community is dedicated to supporting motherless mothers - by circumstance or by choice.

We are a place for women whose mothers are absent due to loss, illness, estrangement, or any situation whereby maternal presence and support are missing.

We offer a safe space for sharing stories, finding resources, and healing together.

Whether you're seeking emotional support, practical guidance, or just a place to feel seen, we're here for you.

Alongside our community support, we work to influence healthcare pathways and policies to ensure the needs of motherless women are recognised and met within maternity, mental health services and beyond.

The Parent Rooms (formerly We Are Pangs) aim to make sure every parent in Northern Ireland has access to support and services to help them improve and maintain their mental health.
