Family Lives Support Service for New Mothers

In Barnsley Central Area we deliver a support service for new mothers to increase resilience and the emotional wellbeing of those who are experiencing isolation and low level emotional wellbeing issues. We work closely with Midwifery, Health Visitors and the Family Support Service.

Volunteer befriending supports new mothers by offering a listening ear, helping them find their own strengths and solutions to build confidence, supporting mothers to access activities and signposting them to other sources of support, We offer help and guidance over the telephone and support mothers to link up with other new mothers and local groups.
