The Essex Alliance is sharing this information on behalf of Parents 1st.

Pregnancy in Mind (PiM) is a free mental health support group for parents-to-be to find space for whatever they’re feeling. It is designed for parents experiencing or at risk of mild anxiety or depression, who are between 12 and 26 weeks pregnant.

– Mindfulness and ways to boost your mood
– Relaxation
– Connecting with your baby
