Have Your Say: Support for Young Mums and Birthing People in Essex

Posted on: August 20, 2025

Are you a young mum or birthing person in Essex under the age of 25—or do you work with someone who is? We want to hear from you.

We’re running a short, anonymous survey to better understand the needs, experiences, and challenges faced by young mums and birthing people aged 16–25. The feedback gathered will help shape future peer support services, making sure they are relevant, meaningful, and designed around what matters most to you.

👉 Take the survey here

It only takes a couple of minutes to complete, and every response will make a real difference.

Why it matters

Becoming a parent at a young age can be both exciting and challenging. By sharing your experiences, you’ll help ensure that services in Essex provide the right kind of support, at the right time.

How you can help

If you work with or know young mums and birthing people in Essex, we’d be so grateful if you could share the survey link—or the flyer—through your networks, during appointments, or on social media.

Together, we can make sure young parents across Essex feel supported and understood.
