Hamish and his team welcome anyone wishing to join to run or support to join on the day.
All donations welcome and we encourage anyone to undertake their own “Loop Challenge” in aid of Perinatal Mental Health.
What will the funding go towards?
Pillar I: Awareness & Education
To raise awareness about postpartum depression ("PPD") and other Perinatal Mental Health issues ("PMH"). Campaigns include social media, photographic exhibitions, and film.
Pillar II: Care
We are improving the care of new parents, in particular in Thailand, through improving identification of PMH issues, with training provided to those in the ecosystem to provide appropriate therapy, in addition to developing a Social Support network.
Pillar III: Research
We are supporting research in 3 areas: medical, with Oxford University, economic with London School of Economics and Political Sciences, and epidemiological, with Siriraj Hospital. We have more projects in the pipeline we will support.
