Thank you!

You’ve taken another big step toward creating safe, supportive spaces for mums navigating maternal mental health challenges.

Through this course, you’ve learned how to:

  • Hold space with confidence and compassion
  • Manage confidentiality and safeguarding concerns calmly and appropriately
  • Create a welcoming, non-judgmental environment where every mum feels heard
  • Use strengths-based, trauma-informed approaches to build hope and resilience
  • Share your lived experience safely while maintaining healthy boundaries
  • Respond to tricky group dynamics with clarity and kindness
  • Record, debrief, and look after your own wellbeing after sessions

You are now equipped with the tools and mindset to make a real difference.

 

    What's next:

    Before you become a fully fledged facilitator, there are a few important steps:

     

    Mandatory Online Training

    If you haven’t already completed these on the e-Learning for Health platform, please do so:

    • Safeguarding Children – Level 1 and Level 2
    • Safeguarding Adults – Level 1 and Level 2
    • Suicide Awareness Training (within your first year)

    These are essential for working with vulnerable mums and children.

     

    Settling-In Sessions

    You’ll take part in 2–3 supported facilitation sessions alongside an experienced facilitator. This is your chance to:

    • Practise what you’ve learned in a real group setting
    • Build confidence with gentle guidance
    • Ask questions and reflect on your experience

     

    Readiness Chat

    After your settling-in sessions, you’ll have a check-in with the Facilitating Lead or Lucinda to make sure you feel ready and supported before leading a group independently.

     

      Your Support Network

      Remember, you’re never alone in this role.

      You’ll have:

      • Ongoing supervision and support chats
      • Peer connection with other facilitators
      • Access to resources and the Volunteero app for updates and reporting

        Thank you for stepping forward to support mums at a time when they need it most. Your time, your story, and your care will help others feel less alone.
