We enjoy sharing the work we are doing, through conference workshops, webinars and more. Over the years, we have presented at conferences such as the Marce International Conference in Barcelona (2024), Health Services Academy Conference in Pakistan (November 2025), delivered a workshop in collaboration with contextual consulting (Summer 2025) and more! This year, we have a number of talks, at both conferences and stand alone, which you might be interested in attending.

This seminar will focus on the development of psychological therapies within perinatal mental health services in Wales, and internationally. Starting in 2013, we will introduce attendees to the context surrounding perinatal services including the Maternal Mental Health Alliance campaign and government investment in perinatal mental health services. We will discuss the evidence base for psychological interventions to treat perinatal mental health conditions, outlining the gaps in psychological provision within perinatal mental health care and the need for service development.
We will then discuss our experience of training staff both within NHS Wales perinatal mental health services, and internationally within Malaysia, USA and Pakistan. We will share our experience of culturally adapting psychological interventions for a range of different cultures and languages. Our values have always guided our work, and our hope is that attendees will recognise how integral these are to any service development, whether this be local to your context or wider. The ongoing ACT-PNMH impact and innovation project led by Cerith and Jenny has led to a Cardiff University IAA impact award, a HCRW award for impact and the Cardiff and Vale UHB team were shortlisted for an NHS Wales award.
