Cynon Wellbeing Drop-In

A safe, gentle space for mums to just be.

Being a new mum can feel overwhelming, lonely, and full of unspoken emotions. You don’t have to do it on your own.

Join us every Thursday at Aberdare Library, 10am – 11:30am, for a relaxed drop-in where you can:
🤍 Meet other mums who get it
🤍 Share what life is really like with a newborn (the highs and the wobbles)
🤍 Feel listened to, understood, and never judged
🤍 Enjoy a warm cuppa and a few comforting snacks

No pressure. No expectations. Just real conversation, connection, and community.

Whether you’re in your pyjamas under a coat, or feeling like you’ve got it together today you are welcome, exactly as you are.

We see you. We hear you. You matter.

Mothers Matter also support dads, with their brilliant services.

"Men are often expected to be strong and self-reliant, and expressing vulnerability or seeking help for mental health issues can be seen as a sign of weakness. If individuals do not have positive role models in their lives who have been open about their mental health struggles, it can be difficult for them to know how to talk about their own experiences."

We have tagged a number of Organisations in this post to help promote as many as possible, connecting organisations together as best we can - we will continue to do this for every post! If you'd like us to highlight your Men focused project please let us know!

Any santas available on 29th November please?!🎅🏻✨

This November, we change our photo and pause for Remembrance.

We honour the extraordinary selflessness and dedication shown by all those in the Armed Forces. The act of service, putting others before oneself, is a powerful reminder of the deep connections within communities.

At Mothers Matter, we are dedicated to our own form of vital community service: supporting the perinatal and postnatal mental health of new and expectant parents and their families. Just as we remember the sacrifices for our country, we celebrate the strength and courage shown by parents and parents to be every single day.

Take a moment at the Eleventh Hour of the Eleventh Day, to reflect on all acts of courage, both on the battlefield and in the home.

Lest we forget. We Remember.

Mens Mental Health Awareness Month

While all the focus gravitates to mum and baby, your perinatal journey is happening, too. You’re supporting, providing, and navigating massive life change.

To the fathers, partners, and supporters. Your journey matters too. The sleepless nights, the worries, the silent strength, we see you. Your mental wellness is essential.

1 in 10 dads experience depression or anxiety during this time, and we want you to know: you are not alone, and your mental health is essential.

You’re wired to protect, provide, and problem-solve. But being overwhelmed, anxious, or irritable doesn’t make you a bad partner or father, it makes you human.

Your mental strength is the foundation for your family. Don’t wait for a crisis to secure it. If you’re running on empty, we offer the tools, resources, and non-judgmental space you need to get back to being your best.

Take the action step that strengthens your whole family. Get in touch today and reach for our specialist support in the perinatal period. We are here for you. 💙
