MUMSAFE x Bay ActivePT Team

Introduce why the participant is fundraising

This July, we are taking on the BIG STEP CHALLENGE to take one big step and make it bigger everyday.

We are working as a team in support of safer births, better healing and raising funds to support the Australasian Birth Trauma Association (ABTA).

The ABTA is a peer-led community dedicated to helping Australian and New Zealanders prevent and heal from birth-related trauma. The ABTA does this through advocacy, education, research and peer-led support.

1 in 3 Australian women identify their birth as traumatic and research suggests that 10-20% of first-time mothers may suffer major irreversible physical birth trauma. Anyone can experience birth-related trauma including people giving birth, partners, friends and family members of people giving birth and other people witnessing a birth or providing care in relation to pregnancy and birth, including health professionals. It's likely that you know someone who has experienced birth-related trauma.

You can help make a difference. Support our BIG STEP!
