Wise words from our favourite poet and supporter of women Donna Ashworth
Happy New Year everyone! 🎆💜

On the stroke of midnight tonight, you can resolve to be better, if you like…
to be fitter,
to eat cleaner,
to work harder.

On the stroke of midnight tonight,
you can resolve to become a whole new you,
if you so choose.

Or, you can take a moment to acknowledge what you already are.
Because it’s a lot.
You are a lot.

And you deserve to be truly seen.

On the stroke of midnight tonight, perhaps you could congratulate yourself, for coping.
For breaking, again,
for rebuilding, again.

For catching the stones life has thrown at you,
and using them to build your castle that little bit more beautifully.

And if you have used those stones to block yourself in for the ‘heal’, perhaps you can realign them this year. Make a grander gate, not a higher wall.

You have endured, my friend.
Through times you thought unendurable. You did.

And I don’t see the need to resolve to become a whole new you,
when you are already so very much indeed.

Happy new year.

You made it.

Now let us face another 365 day-turn, arms wide…
accepting, embracing and ‘seeing’ one other,
for all we truly are…

breaks and all.

Donna Ashworth

With lots of people being ill at the moment this information is very relevant 💜

Lots about at the moment. Keep feeding! It's great for your baby, but also will prevent engorgment and mastitis and protect your supply. Get well soon! X

Great news!!! Just in time for Christmas, we're over the moon to have been granted funding from the National Lottery Community Fund. Thanks to our fantastic team who have worked so hard to secure the funding, and to all our supporters.
We're so happy that we can continue to support mums and families in our community 💜

Be kind to yourself 💜

This week is Grief Awareness Week, and a chance to recognise how any type of loss can affect our wellbeing.

There’s no right or wrong way to feel — grief affects everyone differently.

If you're finding things difficult, there’s support that can help.
