We partnered with the brilliant Holly Smith to produce this animation to raise awareness around the subject of mental wellbeing after childbirth. We know that many people experience depression or low mood after childbirth. However, for some it might be difficult to get the right support and treatment. We hope this project enables more conversations on the subject and more people to get the support they need.
We had an overwhelming response to the video, with people sharing and interacting to show their support. We hope this reaches those people who have recently given birth or are expecting to give birth, their partners, support networks, and GPs who provide care for people after childbirth.
