Story

Get ready, get set, go!... Please support our amazing team who are signed up to take part in the Birmingham Velo challenge, cycling an incredible 100 miles around the Midlands to raise money for Acacia Family Support.

Acacia Family Support offers help to mums and families who are suffering from pre and post-natal depression. We believe that no mum/dad should suffer alone. We offer support through one to one befriending, group work sessions using CBT, telephone support and help in the home.

Here is a quote from one of our mums who used our service ...

I look forward to Monday mornings knowing I will be listened to having an unstructured place to talk things through has really changed how I was feeling and just being around other mums with post-natal depression makes me feel more normal.

Please support us in this huge challenge by donating whatever you can afford. Your donation will go towards helping many more future families receive the support they need.

£5 provides one off practical support at home or befriending.

£10 cover the cost of a group work course for one of our mums (with free creche).

£50 buys a mum or dad's entire journey of recovery with Acacia.
