Description:
The Foundation for Mother & Child Health works with families to help every child reach their potential.
In the UK we raise awareness of the importance of maintaining good mental health in parents during pregnancy and after the birth of a child. We do this through collaboration with other not for profit organisations, healthcare professionals and film directors and have co produced an animated film 'Perinatal Positivity' - available in several different languages.
In India and Indonesia we work with low income communities to provide ante-natal classes for pregnant women - focusing on their physical and mental health, health and nutrition classes for mothers & fathers and, training for community health care workers. In Jakarta and West Timor we provide pre school education for children under the age of five.
