Maternal mental health can be hard to talk about.

“The biggest takeaway I would want new moms to think about in terms of their mental health is that there is power and comfort in connecting with others. It’s okay to reach out for support even if you are nervous about opening up.” Togetherall Senior Clinician.

If you need support or more information, here are a few resources that could help. You can also join the @Togetherall community today, FREE to anyone in the UK Military, Veterans & Family members aged 16+ at togetherall.com​, talk to others who understand.

Lincoln University research survey for military families with neurodiverse children

 


University of Lincoln are running a tri-Service survey for military families who have neurodiverse children (both diagnosed and not diagnosed). They want to know what support families are receiving, and what support they don't have but that would be helpful.

Researchers hope to have a large response to enable them to move forward with establishing services to support families in the future.

The survey is linked here, which starts with the full information sheet. The survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. https://unioflincoln.questionpro.eu/t/AB3u0MjZB3vtay
