March for Mothers

Did you know that 84% of mums still feel stigma around maternal mental health?

That’s the reality uncovered by new Sport in Mind data, and sits alongside global evidence showing that 1 in 5 mothers experience a perinatal mental health condition, many without receiving timely or adequate help.

It’s why today Sport in Mind are launching their Marching for Mothers campaign, which will take place on May 6th this year - World Maternal Mental Health Day.

They turning compassion into action, and they'd love you to join them!

Step forward on 6 May

Host a walk. Join a walk. Share the message.

Every step helps break stigma and shows mums everywhere: you are not alone.

Sport in Mind have created free posters, graphics, and a simple toolkit so anyone; your friends, family, workplaces, running clubs, NCT groups, can take part with ease.

Regional walks will also take place if you would like to join one of those to show support.
