Our Mindful Mums colleagues had a lovely time meeting families at the Best Start in Life Family Hub’s Summer Family Fun Day.

The event took place on Thursday 13 August at the Family Hub, West St in Erith.

Alongside mindful colouring and conversations about the ups and downs of parenting, we heard from former Mindful Mums participants who shared how the friendships and wellbeing strategies they gained through the programme are still supporting them today.

Mindful Mums offers supportive peer groups for pregnant women and new mums across Bexley, providing a welcoming space to connect, share experiences and support wellbeing.
