Funded Activity Summary

Physical activity confers mental health benefits in postnatal women, including reducing postnatal depression (PND) risk. Yet most postnatal women are not active enough. Few strategies have successfully promoted physical activity in this group. With significant input from women experiencing PND symptoms and community groups servicing them, this research program will develop and evaluate the efficacy of a home-based physical activity program aimed at reducing PND symptoms.
