Raindrops To Rainbows

If you have been affected by this evening’s episode of ITV Coronation Street, and the story of Sinead’s cancer, then please contact Mummy's Star, an organisation who supports families with women who have been diagnosed with cancer during pregnancy.

Did you know...? Suicide is the biggest killer in women in the postpartum period. This is why we need to keep talking about Maternal Mental Health and ensuring these mums have the support available because #mumsmatter #worldsuicidepreventionday #wspd

Interested in some self defence classes? Then check out this post from Durham Constabulary!

The Andys Man Club tour will be visiting Andy's Man Club Hartlepool on Saturday at around 5-5.30pm. So why not pop down and see what they’re all about and the fantastic support they offer to men across the country.
Unfortunately we won’t be able to make the visit, but we will be sending our best wishes for the event, and will continue to support AMC as we always have done!

We are excited to announce the dates of the 4th Annual UK Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week. We are already thinking about plans for next year’s events, and if you would like to join in with local events, please do drop us an email - support@raindropstorainbows.co.uk
You can also keep up to date with our national events by signing up to our Perinatal Mental Health Partnership mailing list - perinatalmhpartnership@gmail.com

Why not join Daddy & Me Messy Stay & Play for their Family Day next Saturday!

Together we will end the stigma. We’ve came a long way but there’s still a long way to go 🌸

Here’s tonight’s reminder.❤️

If you could sum up today’s mood with one emoji, which would it be?

A FREE child car seat safety checking event will take place outside the former Mothercare store, at Teesside Park on Thursday 22 August, 10am-3pm
Road Safety Officers from Darlington, Middlesbrough and Stockton Borough Councils will be working with fitting experts from Child Seat Safety Ltd to offer free, unbiased advice on fitting child car seats.
Parents can pop along for help and assistance will be offered on a first come first served basis, with as many checks as possible carried out.

Please head over to Instagram and on to @sussexroyal to nominate Raindrops to Rainbows as a force for change. We need to ensure that we get our message across that parents do not need to face perinatal mental illnesses alone. This would be a great platform for this and so we need your help!!!
