How to volunteer

We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to join us as a Peer Supporter to support pregnant women and new families in City & Hackney.

Peer Supporters will support families across a number of topics, including maternal health and babies’ development and will identify support services within the City & Hackney community. You will be paired on a 1-to-1 basis with pregnant women and new families.

  • This is a new service that aims to build confidence, independence and relationship building between networks, address equality of access to local pregnancy and wider support services for pregnant women and new families.
  • The service will provide emotional, social and informational support to families
  • Key messages relating to support in areas such as healthy weight, oral health and smoking cessation
  • It will support families in accessing other services through in-person, phone and or other support
