Support Group

From 2026 we are running a term time weekly support group aimed at mothers of 0-5 year olds and pregnant women. Every Tuesday 9.30am-10.30am in term time at Downham Market Methodist Church. This group is run as a mother’s circle so no one is left out of the discussion, facilitated by a nominated trained peer supporter, counsellor or IBCLC each week with support from student midwives. We offer:

-Free breastfeeding support, but you don’t have to be breastfeeding to attend

-A friendly, non-judgemental place to make friends

-Regular guest activities

-Fruit, drinks and healthy cakes for little ones

-Hot drinks and biscuits or cakes for mums and toddlers

-Baby weighing scales

-A buddy system if you are feeling nervous to attend

-Sling library and baby wearing support (certain dates)

-Parenting and sleep support
