Story

Emily is taking part in the Cardiff Half Marathon on 6th October 2024.

Emily has chosen to raise funds for Action on Postpartum Psychosis (APP) a UK charity.

I (Barbara, Emily's Mum) suffered from Postpartum Psychosis after both Emily and her brother were born and I became very unwell. I received help and support from APP in my recovery journey.

APP make sure mums, parents and families are supported through postpartum psychosis – a severe, but treatable, form of mental illness that occurs after having a baby and affects 1400 new mums in the UK each year.

They offer information and peer support, facilitate ground breaking research, raise awareness and campaign for improved services.

Their life changing peer support network helps women and families affected by postpartum psychosis feel understood, supported and less isolated.
