Dads Perinatal Support Group

Having a baby can be a huge adjustment, not just for mums, but for dads and partners too. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, unsure how to support your partner, or just need someone to talk to, this free group is here to help.

Provided by Livewell and open to all non-birthing parents (including dads, co-parents and partners), the group offers a safe and informal space to chat, share experiences and get peer support from others who understand what you’re going through. Babies are welcome, and there’s no need for a referral or diagnosis to attend.

If your partner has struggled with their mental health, if you’re experiencing anxiety or low mood yourself, or you simply want to feel less alone in the early months of parenting, this group is for you.

To sign up or find out more, email livewell.perinatalpeersupport@nhs.net 

You don’t have to be in crisis to reach out — if you’re finding things tough, even quietly, you’re not alone. Come along and see what support is available.
