Flourishing Babies Service

We are pleased to announce that our Flourishing Babies project has secured funding to continue to deliver the programme and avoid the need to close. The project was due to end on 31^st July but we have been awarded a grant by Public Health to enable the service to continue. This means that we will be able to continue to support expectant and new parents, and to resume accepting referrals from the 1^st September.

Please get in touch with us so we can support you on your pregnancy and parenting journey.

We offer antenatal support and a baby care skills programme for pregnant and new mums and parents to be, along with perinatal support on a one to one basis in the family home by a volunteer befriender and in peer support groups and drop-ins.

increase parents’ self-confidence
improve the mental health and wellbeing of new parents
