Caked it! Perinatal Wellbeing Centre's Emergency Appeal

Cake Off is our most loved and largest fundraising effort undertaken each year. Unfortunately, its postponement to next year will have a devastating impact on our finances. The reality is, our services are more in demand due to the coronavirus but we will be operating with less funds. We need your help!.

Perinatal depression

Depression occurs in up to 1 in 10 women during pregnancy, and in up to 1 in 7 women after the birth of a baby. Men are also affected by postnatal depression. Certain factors, such as mental health history, complicated pregnancy or birth, or having an unwell or unsettled baby can increase the likelihood of developing perinatal depression.
