| The Bluebell Day campaign is being run by CrossReach, the social care arm of the Church of Scotland. They want to raise funds to help expand current service provision and initiate research into postnatal depression, which affects over 10,000 women in Scotland every year and is still one of the major causes of death for mothers within a year of childbirth.
There are many areas of the country that are under-resourced and the campaign is seeking to set up counselling and support services in areas struggling to do so.
Volunteers from the Postnatal Depression Project team were at Dundee’s Wellgate Centre handing out literature and selling Bluebell pins and T-shirts today.
To donate, or for more information, phone the Bluebell phone hotline on 0870 8990910 or visit www.bluebellday.org.uk |
