Mothers Matter
Bringing another life into the world is a huge responsibility. It can bring feelings of joy, of course, but also fear, anxiety, uncertainty.
Birth itself can be traumatic, a physical and mental ordeal. And then what? There’s no manual that prepares you for the reality of looking after a baby 24/7. You can feel alone, isolated, scared. These feelings are all natural. And Mothers Matter can help with them. They’re a support organisation for mothers suffering from loneliness and isolation.
They’re growing. A parenting hub. Counselling sessions. Sessions for dads. Mab Gwalia funding is helping them run workshops, training courses for parents, to pilot a dad’s support group and peer support for those who have suffered a loss.
