Support for Clapham mums with postnatal depression

The Cedar House Support Group is a registered charity based in Guildford, which helps support mums with postnatal depression.

The Clapham group meets weekly and a professionally trained counsellor

(who also suffered PND twice) runs the meetings. Liz Wise, the charity’s

counsellor says: “PND is such a terrifying illness and often mums

suffer in silence. Our group offers support and help when mums are

feeling low and perhaps lonely and very frightened”. Liz is also the

PND coordinator for the NCT at national level and has over 15 years

experience working in this field. For details of the Clapham group

meetings please contact Liz at [email protected] , 07773 283556.

All calls are confidential.
