In April I will be undertaking the Manchester marathon in support of Action on Postpartum Psychosis. APP is a much needed charity who raises awareness for this illness in addition to providing basically support to women and families. Having volunteered briefly with APP while at uni I saw a glimpse of the important work they do. Any support would be appreciated. 💜

Action on Postpartum Psychosis (APP) is a UK charity. We’re here to 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.

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

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