The Parent Hood of Harlow

18/06/2026

We’re hosting a netball fundraiser on June 30th to raise money for Postnatal Plus.
Our team will be playing against Novo Lounge, and we’re asking for donations to help continue this vital service for families when our National Lottery funding ends. Every donation, no matter the size, helps us keep this invaluable program running.

You can donate via the link in bio or scan the QR when you come into the hub.

Koryne shares her experience as a mum of two living in Harlow, discussing how she discovered The Parent Hood through a coffee morning four years ago. She talks about the valuable classes including the Postnatal Plus course and Mothers Moving yoga, which have helped her regain her strength during maternity leave while caring for her three-month-old daughter. She explains how these activities have been crucial for her mental health, providing structure to her day, opportunities to connect with other parents, and a chance to focus on herself beyond the baby bubble.

In search of netballers. Are you willing to raise at least £50 for a good cause? Comment or DM me and I will send you the sign up link. This is something a little different but just a couple of hours of your time will make a huge difference.

Funding for our essential postnatal course ends this year and it is never guaranteed that I will successfully get funding again. There are so many good causes around. So we have to be creative with our fundraising to ensure we continue to offer this service free of charge to local families.

For example £1000 is enough to pay for a 6 week course. This covers all costs associated with running Postnatal Plus. And we want to run 6 courses per year!

Please help us. Spread the word or sign up yourself!
