👉 AMBITION 24 HOUR CHARITY RUN 👈

We’re lacing up and hitting the ground running — non-stop for 24 hours — to raise money for an incredibly important cause: The Parent and Baby Unit at St George’s Hospital, Stafford.

This specialist eight-bed unit supports mothers and their babies (up to 12 months old) who are struggling with serious mental health challenges related to pregnancy, childbirth, and early motherhood. It’s also able to care for pregnant women from 32 weeks onwards.

💛 Why it matters:

• Up to 80% of women experience the “baby blues” shortly after birth.

• Around 10–15% develop postnatal depression, with symptoms like sadness, fatigue, poor sleep, and feelings of guilt.

• A small but significant number of women (1-2 in every 1000) experience postnatal psychosis, a severe and urgent condition.

While many can be supported at home, some need specialist, inpatient care — and that’s where the Parent and Baby Unit steps in, offering a calm, homely, and healing environment for both mums and babies.

Please donate using the link below if you can 🧡

Sometimes when parents are tired and overwhelmed, all you can see are the challenges, the ‘failures’ and feeling like you’re not doing a good job.

We’re encouraging you to notice and focus on the small things that really make a difference to how you feel about parenting and the relationship with your child.

We want to celebrate the small wins with you! Share your parenting win for the week in the comments
