Story
Action on Postpartum Psychosis are a charity very close to my heart. I can’t imagine anything so scary as to have psychosis or see a loved one with psychosis when becoming a parent! Through my work I’ve seen first hand how this can be a lifeline for families during one of the hardest time in their lives. Their work is invaluable!
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.
