Mendara text-based group support
Our new WhatsApp-based support
The BTA has partnered with Mendara to offer safe, expertly facilitated group support for women who have experienced a difficult or traumatic birth. Easy to join over WhatsApp, with an added safety layer.
Mendara sessions are live, text-based, and completely anonymous. You join a small group of women who have been through similar experiences, using an alias. Your phone number stays hidden and no personal details visible to anyone. What's shared in the group stays in the group.
Every session is led by an experienced, trauma-informed facilitator with lived experience of a difficult birth from the BTA.
Every experience is valid at Mendara. Our facilitators are trained to make sure every voice is heard equally, however your birth went.
Our previous attendee said:
"This was really helpful and useful - one of the best forms of support I've had. It was great to share my story with people that understand and can validate my feelings."

Sessions are 60 minutes, text-based, and fit around your schedule. No pressure to share; participate at your own pace.
