Rise

‘Time for Me’

Rise is a project aimed at supporting mums who are suffering with postnatal depression and anxiety.

The Rise course runs for 12 weeks during term time and offers a range of creative and therapeutic activities alongside a selection of tools and coping strategies. There is a dedicated peer supporter on hand to provide a warm welcome and listening ear, with a wealth of experience and training in perinatal mental health.

A free crèche is available which runs alongside the two hour class, meaning mums have a safe space where their babies can be cared for, allowing them two precious hours to themselves.

Attending our sessions provides mums with a ‘space to just be’, enabling the magic of meeting other mums, experiencing the same things, in a safe, confidential non-judgemental place.

We hope that mums will leave Rise at the end of the course feeling more confident and better able to cope with their anxiety and depression.
