What's On
We are passionate about creating trusted spaces for grassroots organisations in the perinatal mental health sector to come together, share learning, make new contacts and talk about the challenges we are facing.​
​
See below for the kinds of events you can expect from the Hearts & Minds Partnership, and to discover our current offer check out our Eventbrite page.
Conversation Spaces are our bi-monthly online meet-ups for those within our community, as well as anybody else with a stakehold in the perinatal mental health sector.
​
The sessions are FREE and give us the chance to not only learn from and inspire each other, but also forge and develop a collective voice.
​
Every month we chat about a different topic, shining a spotlight on what matters to you right here, right now in our amazing sector.
Conversation Space will give you a chance to breathe deep and be - creating space and light around some challenging parts of our journey as well as celebrating the highlights.
Previous topics have included:

As part of our commitment to empower the development of a more inclusive, accessible and equitable approach to VCSE support in perinatal mental health, we are now offering a series of online, podcast-style sessions called 'Listening Lounge'.​
The lounge has a relaxing vibe where you can listen not just with your ears, but with your senses and whole intuition.
Each online lounge includes a talk, creative inspiration, a panel discussion, practical ideas for application and a focus on YOUR wellbeing too. Facilitated by our 'Root Makers', you'll hear from seldom heard voices, bringing authenticity and depth to the experience.
