EPORT FTH TRUS EES air's welcome As I reflect on my final year as Chair ol Aea¢la, l am tllled wlth prlde lor the Incredlble Journey we've had over the past 20 plus years. Six years after becoming a trustee in 2008,1 experienced postnatal depfession and anxiety myself alter my second child and became really ill. eventually bein9 referred lo the Mother and Baby Unit. At the lime I thought I'd never gel better. but Acacia was there for me as my safe space and with that support and care I recovered and went on to become Chair in 2019. So, I know that Acacia is more than a chaiity - it is a lifeline. a beacon of hope for families lacing emotional turmoil in pregnancy and early parenthood. Thiough the unwavering dedication of our staff team and volunteers. we provide not just support, but hope, compassion, and a sense of belonging, to families often feeling isolated and overwhelmed, One thing that stood out for me when I was ill was how isolating postnatal depression and anxiety can be and how vulnerable il can make you feel At Acacia we ve always had a heart for the most vulnerable families, and an important aspect of our woik is lo ensure Ihal everyone has equal access lo the right support. As Birmingham continues lo grow into one of the UK'S most diverse cities. the rise in perinatal mental health challenges presents a pressing concern. With one in four parents now known to be affected across the country, Ihe situation Is even more critical for young parents. minority ethnic communities, and those living in areas of high deprivation. Our mission. rooted in our Christian values ol love and service, has alway5 been about ensuring that no family faces this journey alone. As we look to the future, our commitment to reach all lamilies. and especially the most vulnerable in 8irmingham, remains stronger than ever. Acacia's work will continue. grounded in faith, with the belief that every family deserves the chance to heal. thrive, and experience the joy of parenthood Georglna D••n Chair of the boaTd ot trustees Acacia Birmingham-based charity otfering postnatal depression and anxiety, helping compassionate support understood, valued, famslies facing less alone. to provide toughe51 115tening momeiit5. pi-aclical ensuring strength, comfort. support deserve parents Acacia Family Support Trustees, Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025

STORY How I telt before Aeaeia. help It's the loneliest, isolatin9 place I've ever been my life. I didn't really recognise poorly felt like l just had no light my soul whatsoever I had absolutely no energy for anything. no interest or pleasure in anything. I can only describe it as having this sort of black c.loud hanging over all the time, just sucking the life out of me. I was in such a low place. I'd lost my confidence in everything. and I thought I was an absolutely awful mother and an awful person that just couldn t do anything at all Jf My experience of A'cacia, s service Everybody wasjust so welcoming and kind. M befriender was a kind. friend ly listening ear an sounding board. I could j st verbalise all of the and the feelings I was having, even thou¢ih. some of them were really awful at the time. I wasn t udged, and nobody told me how I should be feeling. houghts .1 One of the turning points for me was Acacia's Helping ands at ome. Having them in my seeing how it was witht my children. and being so encouraging, kind and caring. really gave me the confidence boost that I needed. Following on from that, I've been in 4 group work, 2hich haslbeen lovely, like another sttp forward. and I'miin a much, muchTbetter plac.e The. support that they offer is just incredible. It's just a really lovely.safe space that they have created there. 66 The support that they ofler ts Just Iner•dlble.

I found myself constantly wanting to talk about how I was fèel•ingJespecially as the days went on and on. I spoke to the Health Visitor and. I think this was a key moment where lirealised as a newsmother. I needed more than just one conversation. She referred me to Acacia. Looking back at it now. especially with my f irst child, I didn't really have the opportunity to share. and I just kept feeling down and upset and not realising why. I didn't really notice that these were signs of postnatal depression, and I wasn't confident in admitting that I was struggling. The silence. the isolation. made everything much harder to manage. o. with my second child. I was finally able to recognise that something wasn't right. and Acacia gave me a space to voice it. When I did reach out to Acacia, thing completely changed from the first phone call, heard and understood. They didn't rush me.. make like just another client or another individual, er mother going through the same issue. ever rLLLived one to one emotional support and group 5¢sssions where I learnt early signs to understand triggèr points and self-inlervention.
