Open House - Postnatal Depression Support

Open House (OH) was founded by a group of Mums in early 2012 with the aim of supporting those who are or have been affected by any psychological and emotional condition which has developed during pregnancy or during the postnatal period. These include antenatal depression, postnatal depression, anxiety & OCD.

One of our main aims is too increase awareness of maternal mental health difficulties through giving talks about our own experiences. So far we have spoken regularly to students from The Nottingham University School of Nursing & Midwifery and charities including Home Start & Family Action

Peer Support Drop-in Groups

About Our Groups

The atmosphere at both groups is friendly, welcoming & non-judgemental. They provide a safe space for mums to discuss how they are truly feeling.

• No booking required. 
• Our groups are for parents to attend with or without their children.
• Refreshments & biscuits are provided, but we do ask for a donation towards this.

We hope that the work we do will reduce the stigma attached to pre & postnatal depression, reduce the isolation that sufferers may be experiencing and increase their self-esteem.
