The Happy Mums Foundation

The Happy Mums Foundation supports maternal mental health by providing essential support groups for mothers facing anxiety, depression, and isolation. They aim to ensure no mother struggles alone, fostering community and connection among local mums.

Help us keep maternal mental health support available for local mumsRight now, Happy Mums is at risk of closing.For many of the mums who attend our groups, we are the only mental health support they receive. In fact, 75% of the mums accessing Happy Mums are not receiving support from any other mental health service. Every week, mums come through our doors carrying anxiety, loneliness, overwhelm, depression, birth trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, and the many invisible pressures that can come with pregnancy and motherhood. Many arrive believing they are the only one struggling. They leave knowing they are not alone.As one mum told us: &quot;I genuinely don&#39;t know where I would be without it.&quot;Another said:&nbsp;&quot;They literally saved my life.&quot; Why are we asking for help?Demand for support continues to grow, but funding for preventative mental health services has become increasingly difficult to secure.Over the last year, we have supported hundreds of mums through our groups and community outreach work, helping improve wellbeing, reduce isolation, and build confidence. Despite this, we currently have less than three months of financial reserves remaining.We are applying for funding, developing new income streams, expanding our training offer, and working towards charitable status. We are doing everything we can to secure a sustainable future.But without additional support, local mums could lose a service they rely on. Why &pound;25,000?Our target of &pound;25,000 would help sustain Happy Mums for approximately three months, giving us vital time to:<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Continue supporting mums who rely on our groups</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Await the outcome of funding applications already submitted</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Expand our Parental Mental Health in the Workplace training</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Develop new income-generating projects</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Complete our transition to charitable status</li></ul>This campaign is not about funding Happy Mums forever. It is about protecting support for mums while longer-term solutions are put in place. How you can help You can help in two ways:Make a donation &ndash; every contribution helps keep support groups running and reduces the risk of vulnerable mums being left without support.Start your own fundraiser &ndash; whether it&#39;s a bake sale, coffee morning, sponsored walk, challenge event, raffle, school fundraiser, workplace event or community activity, every pound you raise helps. You&#39;ll have your own fundraising page and target, while everything you raise also contributes towards our overall &pound;25,000 goal.Every contribution makes a difference<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">&pound;10 could provide refreshments and resources for a support session</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">&pound;25 could help cover volunteer expenses and training</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">&pound;50 could contribute towards facilitator and group delivery costs</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">&pound;100+ helps keep support groups available for local mums</li></ul>No donation is too small.Why this mattersWe provide support that helps mums before they reach crisis point.
