Winning Best Mental Health Support Service in Wales and Best Wellbeing Service in Wales last year absolutely blew us away. 👏
This year, we’re over the moon to be nominated in four categories at the Mental Health & Wellbeing Awards!
Mothers Matter was founded to save lives, and every day our team works to make sure families feel heard, understood and supported. We’ve now supported over 5,000 families in Wales. If we’ve helped even one person feel less alone, that means everything to us.
We’re so proud of these nominations, and just as excited to celebrate everyone alongside us. The people and organisations in these categories are doing incredible things for their communities. We all deserve a moment to recognise that. 🤍
Thank you to for shining a light on this work and bringing us all together. Here’s to the 2026 awards!
With love and thanks from all of us at Mothers Matter. 💚

Some conversations are hard to have… but they matter.
Behind the smiles, behind the “I’m fine”, some mums are silently struggling more than we realise.
In Wales, mental health is the leading cause of death in the first year after birth.
Many of these deaths are preventable with the right support, at the right time.
This isn’t about statistics alone this is about real mums, real families, and real lives.
No mum should feel like she has to carry it all on her own.
No mum should feel unheard, unseen, or unsupported.
At Mothers Matter, we are here to listen, to walk alongside you, and to remind you that you are not alone even in the darkest moments.
If this resonates with you, or someone you know, please reach out.
Talking can save lives.
You are not alone 💛

I watch my children grow up, I worry about them 24/7 and I always check they are breathing before I go to sleep at night.

We all have our differnt ways of being a mum.

I look at this picture and I am so proud of myself for getting through being a new mum and the trauma I faced bringing my Daughter into the world.

I also think about the IVF journey I went through, the years of therapy and the baby losses along the way, sometimes these thoughts make me sad but other times I beam with pride that I got through it. I reflect on the journey I took and why it happened to me but I also think to myself, if I hadn't of experienced the journey I did I wouldn't have the strength I have today, the ability to help others or the 2 absolutely beautiful daughters I am so lucky to have. I wouldn't of met the most amazing people and heard their inspirational stories.

Everyone has a story, there is something positive to be found in everyone's story, its how you choose to reflect and remember your story that matters to you.

Thank you everyone who attended our Paediatric First Aid Awareness Course today with Chatfield Training.

Some top tips from todays discussions and experiences......
B&M Stores have great ear thermometers and basic first aid kits.

LifeVac choking devices are regulated by Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency they are expensive but *actually* work!

Concerned about attending your local A&E departments why not contact 111 📱in the first instance and gain that guidance.

Can't talk due to a medical emergency or your in danger
Have you heard of
*'Silent Solution system'*
Pressing 55 on a 999 call to the South Wales Police is part of the Silent Solution system. This system is designed to filter out accidental or hoax 999 calls and assist individuals who genuinely need police assistance but cannot speak. When you press 55, it alerts the police that you are in a genuine emergency situation. However, it does not allow the police to track your location. The police will then attempt to communicate with you by asking simple yes or no questions to assess your situation and arrange help if needed 🚓🚨
