The Mama Tribe - Fort William

25/08/2026

Hello everyone 👋

You may have noticed some changes recently, and I've always wanted to be open and honest with you all, so here's whats happening ✨️

Unfortunately, we were struggling to find any funding for The Mama Tribe to keep running, which was making it increasingly more & more difficult and unsustainable to keep going!

However, the exciting news is that The Mama Tribe has now become Thrive!

Thrive is a business and is run with the same aims, to provide education, connection and support for mums in Lochaber. The only difference being that we now charge full price for our classes & events, and in turn we are able to put more time & effort into making it the best service for the mums in Lochaber!

We've taken our experience from the last two years of running The Mama Tribe and expanded the classes and events that were the most popular through Thrive!

We're really excited to see what The Mama Tribe evolving into Thrive is going to mean ✨️

We already have a timetable of weekly classes up on Thrive, so please take a look!!

To check out Thrive you can find us on:

Thank you so much to everyone for their support to The Mama Tribe over the last two years, and we hope to see you at one of our Thrive events soon!
