Ways to Wellness is to co-deliver a project to support young mums in the region with their mental health.

We have joined forces with the Maternal Mental Health Alliance (MMHA) and Sunderland Counselling Service to trial an intervention in which a specialist social prescribing link worker will offer both emotional and practical care to some of the women and girls in our communities most at risk of pre and postnatal mental health issues.

Test and learn collaborative prototyping for improved maternal mental health across NE and N Cumbria Geographical Area. Ways to Wellness feature in the North East & North Cumbria Women’s Health Conference 2023 Abstract Summary.

In this blog post Ang Broadbridge, VCSE Maternal Health Services Project Manager, shares some of the learning from the Ways to Wellness VCSE Maternal Mental Health Services programme, and other Ways to Wellness projects.
