We are looking for parents to make a difference

The Smart Start programme has given voice to over 1,127 parents in Warwickshire. Becoming a parent can have a major impact on your mental health and well-being. Some of the findings include:

  • one in five women in Warwickshire experience mental health issues in pregnancy or the first year after birth
  • more than one in ten expectant or new dads develop mental health issues
  • mental health issues can affect the relationship between parent(s) and infant

In response to these findings, a steering group has been set up to support the mental health and well-being of parents and their infants. The group will involve parents with recent experience, so Making Space is setting up a network to work alongside the steering group.

For more information please call Making Space Co-Production Warwickshire on 01926 679207.
