Since 1979, APNI has been supporting mums, families and friends through the challenges of PND, via our helpline, online chat or email. We run a volunteering scheme that connects mums who have recovered from this illness with those currently struggling, offering a listening ear and sharing hope.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Our friend Emma passed away in 2011 after suffering horrendously with Post Natal Illness.  Despite asking for help, the right care was not available to her.

According to Freedom of Information Act responses from 193 NHS trusts across England, only 50 provide a specialist perinatal mental health service for new mothers.  Government health advisers recommended 7 years ago that such care should be made available everywhere.  Sadly, quality mental health care in the UK is a postcode lottery.

The charter for better mental health is a campaign seeking better access to specialist perinatal mental health services everywhere.  

I am running to raise awareness and funding for The Association for Post Natal Illness, who are a charity which offers support for sufferers and their families.  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you so much for reading this.

Love Suki
