Help us

Volunteers

If you have experienced post-natal depression and would like to help someone who is currently suffering from the illness, then please do contact us.  Our volunteers work usually by phoning or emailing the mother at regular intervals and allowing her to express many of the negative feelings that we experience when we are ill.  Some mothers prefer to be helped by post.  Volunteers give sufferers very real hope that they will one day recover from the illness.  They can also be of assistance to depressed mothers with practical advice about matters relating to looking after the baby while you are unwell.

Please only apply if you have the time for regular calls and/or emails.  This may be 2-3 times per week when necessary.

All volunteers are backed up by our trained staff and our medical experts who can offer advice on a wide range of problems.

If you feel that you would like to help us in this way please  complete one of the forms (divided into male and female volunteer forms) below as accurately as possible or e-mail us or write to our office for further details.

Supporters

These good people agree to  give the organisation £5  per year and we send out reminders during the autumn. This scheme brings us in very badly needed  funds and many of our supporters give us more than £5 for which we are extremely grateful. In return you get a copy of our autumn newsletter and  support the charity in a most effective manner in its work trying to assist depressed mothers.

For further details please write to Mr Dave Page at our office address.

Covenants or Direct Debits

Some people wish to donate an amount of money every month. This is of great benefit to the organisation and even three or four pounds a month is of great help to us. The easiest way to do this is to set up a direct debit  and this can be done by following the link to our direct debit form (click here) or by  requesting a direct debit sheet from our office. In either case we are extremely grateful for this type of support, we encourage regular donors to complete Gift Aid slips so that the charity can recover  income tax which increases the value of the donation.

One-Off Donations

The organisation is always very grateful to receive donations of any size.
These can be in the form of cheques, bankers orders or postal orders which are sent to our office or they can be made online using credit or debit cards. Donors who wish to donate online are requested to use either our Just Giving page  or our Virgin Money Giving Page Cheques are made payable to: The Association for Post-Natal Illness and posted to The Association for Post-Natal Illness, 145 Dawes Road, Fulham, London, UK, SW6 7EB.
