Mellow Parenting trains practitioners in a range of parenting programmes. Mellow Bumps is an antenatal programme, reducing anxiety in pregnancy and promoting bonding with the baby. Mellow Babies and Mellow Toddlers groups are offered to mums or dads and their children. These programmes have been shown to improve parental mental wellbeing and perceived child behaviour. Mellow Futures combines the Bumps and Babies programmes for mothers with learning difficulties or disabilities, aiming to meet the needs of a group of parents who are often missed by mainstream services.

Our vision is for a world with good mental health for all. Our mission is to help people understand, protect and sustain their mental health. Prevention is at the heart of what we do, because the best way to deal with a crisis is to prevent it from happening in the first place.

We are working with the MMHA to deliver Mums and Babies in Mind, a 3 year Big Lottery funded project to improve the provision of mental health services to mothers in pregnancy and in the first year of their baby. Please visit the Projects section of this website to learn more.

The Foundation also delivers Young Mums Together which promotes and co-produces peer support for mothers aged 25 and under in three boroughs in North London as well as a project in Wales called Creating Connections which delivers peer support by and to single parents for their mental health.

MindWise are a leading mental health charity in Northern Ireland who support people affected by mental illness in their journey from recovery to discovery.

Mothers at Home Matter provides support to mothers through campaigning activities that span a broad spectrum of policy areas from Health to Taxation and Welfare. MAHM calls for policies to better support family life, childhood and parental wellbeing and that recognise the importance of relationships and caregiving.

Mummy’s Star is the only charity in the UK and Ireland supporting pregnancy through cancer and beyond. We support women diagnosed with any type of cancer during pregnancy or within a year postnatally, and also the families of women who have died from cancer within a year of a birth. As a charity, we offer one-to-one tailored support and signposting, alongside online communities and small grants for families. We aim to raise the profile of cancer and pregnancy and advocate for more consistent and evidence-based care for women in this frightening and uncertain situation.

The National Centre for Mental Health (NCMH) brings together world-leading researchers from Cardiff, Swansea and Bangor Universities to learn more about the triggers and causes of mental health problems.

We aim to help improve diagnosis, treatment and support for the millions of people affected by mental ill-health every year, as well as tackle the stigma faced by many. Key to achieving these aims is to engage with services and their users, the third sector and the wider public to increase understanding of mental illness, and by supporting and undertaking mental health research.
