“One in five women experience mental health challenges during pregnancy or after birth.”
And yet, so many don’t feel able to talk about it.
This Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re pausing to recognise just how important it is to support parents as people, not just as carers.
Simple things can make a real difference. The Maternal Mental Health Alliance highlights that building a flexible routine, staying connected with others, and taking even short moments to rest or do something you enjoy can all support wellbeing during this time.
Because maternal mental health isn’t just about one moment, it’s about having the space, support and understanding to navigate a huge life change.
At Storal, we know that benefits alone don’t “fix” mental health challenges, but they can help people feel supported when they need it most. That’s why we offer things like:
💛 Access to counselling sessions 💛 Enhanced maternity leave 💛 Fertility support 💛 Compassionate leave 💛 Childcare discounts and funding 💛 Gym memberships & wellbeing perks like spa days
They’re just one part of creating a culture where people feel seen, supported and able to ask for help.
Let’s keep the conversation going because no parent should feel like they have to do this alone 💬
