Supporting New Dads – CPSL Mind

If you are struggling with your mental health during your partner’s pregnancy or after giving birth, then you can self-refer to this service, which includes:

• Dads Matter An informal eight week course for dads who are experiencing mental health challenges, feeling socially isolated or struggling to adapt to becoming a parent. These courses take place face-to-face in Peterborough and Cambridge.
• Peer Support Groups Monthly online meet-ups for dads via Zoom.

If you aren’t comfortable self- referring, you can ask a health professional to refer you instead (a GP, health visitor or midwife). There’s more information on the website as well as a referral form for you or a healthcare professional to complete.

There is also support for new mums that are struggling with their mental health from CPSL Mind – find out more here.

This support is free.
