Swindon Maternal Journal

A safe space to creatively express your joys, fears and general feelings through pregnancy and motherhood.

No experience needed and babies are welcome.

Maternal Journal groups are designed for anyone experiencing the emotional and physical changes and challenges in pregnancy, birth and new parenthood.

We will use poetry, prose, drawing, painting and collage but there really is no specific way to express yourself through journaling.

Sessions will run for two hours and include opportunities to share and discuss.

We will provide journals but you are welcome to bring your own if you would prefer. All creative materials will also be supplied, together with tea, coffee and cake.

Our first group will meet at Twigs Community Gardens, and has been supported by Central Swindon North Community Grants Scheme.
