We are always championing and amplifying the voices of our community

​

We can announce that we have been welcomed into the Maternal Mental Health Alliance as a member organisation.
The Maternal Mental Health Alliance brings together national organisations to advocate for change and ensure that all women and families impacted by perinatal mental health problems have access to high quality, compassionate care and support.
We look forward to working with other member organisations to amplify your voices, demonstrate the plethora of military maternal mental health experiences, and advocate for change which reflects the nuances of military life. Thank you to the Alliance for recognising the importance of our mission, understanding the power of peer support and allowing us to take our place alongside the other incredible member organisations.

Amplifying the military parental mental health voice right to the very top .

The perinatal period is such a vulnerable time for the mental health of any new parent, but particularly if you are having to do battle with substandard housing at the same time. We’ve experienced it (no boiler for the first couple of weeks with my second born ), and we know so many of you will have too.

We couldn’t stand back and not communicate our thoughts about it to the Defence Subcommittee, who are conducting an inquiry into service accommodation. We are pleased to say they have accepted and published our evidence on their website.

We’re proud to announce that this World Maternal Mental Health Day, we are partnering with World Maternal Mental Health Day organisers, Sport in Mind, and Postpartum Support International to mark the 10th anniversary of the day with their global ‘March for Mothers’ campaign, on Wednesday 7th May 2025 .

We’re calling on military-connected families everywhere to join us — step out and speak up.

We are inviting our entire network, and the wider military community, to take part in our virtual march for maternal mental health.

Join us in making maternal mental health a priority for all military-connected families.
