Parents in Mind offers support to mothers and birthing people across Coventry and Warwickshire.
The service is funded by Coventry & Warwickshire Partnership Trust and Coventry City Council (Start for Life).
What support is available?
Support is provided across a range of Children and Family Centres, Family Hubs, Community Centres, outdoor spaces and also online via Zoom and WhatsApp (both group and 1-1). Support is tailored to client preference, and moves gently, but with focus: normalising the difficulties of caring for a baby, decreasing isolation, and empowering parents with resources and information.
The local staff team are at the end of the phone for those interested in support, and are keen to liaise with any of our brilliant local partner organisations to make sure care is ‘joined up’ for our clients.

Become a Parents in Mind volunteer
Our project is always keen to welcome new volunteers – parents with lived experience of the struggles raising a newborn can bring, who are passionate about supporting the wellbeing of those in the Coventry/Warwickshire community navigating these struggles today, and who can give two hours a week, in exchange for free accredited mental health training and the chance to make a transformative impact on the early days of family life.
