Important special events
In recognition of Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week (5 to 11 May): ‘Your Voice, Your Strength’
Maternal Mental Health Week is a nationwide campaign organised by the Perinatal Partnership, aimed at empowering women to speak up about their mental health during parenthood. This year’s theme highlights the importance of women being heard, acknowledging that their needs, feelings, and experiences—whether during pregnancy, birth, or parenthood—matter.
In support of this, we held a successful conference day on 6 May and there are further events you can attend and promote to include families and help children who are affected.
For families & professionals: we’re inviting expectant and new parents to join us at the Family Hubs to learn about the support available to them within Cheshire East. This multi-agency event will provide helpful information about accessing services, helping parents feel more empowered in seeking support.
Event Dates:
- Friday 9 May at Crewe Lifestyle Hub 3:30 to 6pm
- Thursday 22 May at Oakenclough Family Hub 3:30 to 6pm
Join us to learn more about the support available during your transition into parenthood.
