Release Counselling and Therapy for Women, the Charity which founded and runs Mother Nurture (formerly Mummyshock) in Sussex, is passionate about nurturing mental health resilience in new mums, in a supportive community of women.

Since Covid-19, demand for our support groups has grown by 300%. The need is bigger than ever before, so that is why a team of dedicated supporters are running the Brighton Marathon 10k on Sunday 7th April, to raise crucial funds to provide more Mother Nurture support groups for more mums in the year ahead.

This is what some mums have said about their experience of the groups:

"This course should be available to every new mum there is nothing like it."

"I don't think I would be the mum I am now without this group. It almost saved me in those early days."

We surveyed our participants and 133 provided feedback. 100% said the course fulfilled their expectations and that they would recommend it to a friend! - Find out more about the positive impact of our services here.
