Welcome . . .
Mother's Voice are here to support mothers, friends and family members who are affected by any form of Perinatal Illness. This covers Antenatal Depression,
Postnatal Depression, Puerperal Psychosis, Birth Trauma and pregnancy related anxiety.
1 in 5 women is now believed to suffer with emotional illness due to pregnancy or birth. 10,000 women a year are found to suffer with birth trauma each year in the UK. Mothersvoice is here to support these women and their families.

The founders are all ex-sufferers and include a qualified nurse and counsellor, birth trauma therapist and postnatal support worker amongst them.

Our aims are to offer support and information to not only the women affected by this illness but also to their partners and families.

At least 40 women a year commit suicide as a direct result of this illness - leaving their babies without a mother - we aim to raise awareness,support sufferers and their families, reduce stigma and work with health care professionals, the media and supportive voluntary agencies to hopefully reduce this number.

We are a non-profit making organisation, but will register as a national Charity very soon.

If you are looking for support for yourself or a loved one, please visit the message board.
