Cranbrook Town Council generously awarded Home-Start Exeter, East and Mid Devon a grant of £1400 towards our work in the area. We have two groups, both based at Cranbrook Education Campus, to support families in the town and so we are hugely grateful to the Town Council for this funding.
Our Mothers in Mind Group is for mothers in the perinatal phase, usually referred to us by their Health Visitors, Midwives, or Perinatal Mental Health Teams. These mothers might have feelings of anxiety, depression, loneliness or OCD around the time of the birth of their child and our Group is a safe space for them to come with their babies, to meet other mothers, chat and explore strategies to improve their mental health and wellbeing.
Our Family Wellbeing Group welcomes all parents (and grandparents) with their pre-school babies and children, where we aim to build stronger parent and child attachments and support early learning and development through play.
