Friday Mums at The Bridge
A free weekly space for new mums
Motherhood can feel lonely, but you don’t have to go through it alone.
Friday Mums is a free weekly group for new mums (and pregnant women) to connect, feel supported, and spend time with others who understand this stage of life.
It’s a relaxed, welcoming space where you can drop in for a coffee, a chat, or an activity — and take time for yourself as well as your baby.
Unlike many baby groups, Friday Mums is designed to support mums as people, not just parents.
What to expect
Each Friday combines informal social space with optional activities, including:
- A free tea or coffee in a café space just for mums
- A comfortable, baby-friendly space with soft play
- Time to chat and connect with other mums
- Perinatal mental health peer support
- Health and wellbeing talks
- Gentle movement-based activities
You’re welcome to drop in at any time and stay for as long or as little as suits you.
Who is it for?
- New mums with babies up to 12 months old
- Pregnant women (some sessions also open to expectant mums)
Many attendees are first-time mums, new to the area, or looking for a low-pressure way to meet other mums.
