Me and my mum are going to run a mile a day every single day in May. The rule is we have to run it (not walk) and it has to be a special trip (ie not part of the usual school run!) and we have to do it every single day, whatever the weather! We will take a picture every day to prove we’ve done it!

Action on Postpartum Psychosis (APP) is a UK charity. We’re here to make sure mums, parents and families are supported through postpartum psychosis – a severe, but treatable, form of mental illness that occurs after having a baby and affects 1400 new mums in the UK each year.

We offer information and peer support, facilitate ground breaking research, raise awareness and campaign for improved services.

Our life changing peer support network helps women and families affected by postpartum psychosis feel understood, supported and less isolated.
