MUM2MUM CAMBRIDGE
Mum2Mum Cambridge was the first Mum2Mum project outside of Kent. They started in 2020, and are going from strength to strength! There are eight different churches involved in this project, from all over the city.
MUM2MUM KENT
We have Mum2Mum projects running in 4 different areas of Kent- Maidstone, Medway, Tonbridge and Malling, and the Isle of Sheppey. All of these projects are co-ordinated by Helene Spocchia, one of our Princess Project Community Support Workers. We try and gather as a regional team at least a couple of times a year to get to know each other better and to learn and pray together.
“My befriender has been very supportive and has given me the confidence I needed to make some lifechanging decisions. I and my family have got a whole new life, and we are much happier."
Mum2Mum befriendeeOur befrienders are all women with parenting experience, who are members of a local church- Mum2Mum is a Christian project, and praying for our mums is a crucial part of our service. You can download a full role description below. All our befrienders go through a recruitment process that involves attending our Mum2Mum befriender training course, an informal interview, obtaining references, and a DBS check.

“I enjoy giving something back- I know how difficult I found it as a young mum with a new baby, what hard work it was, and I had family support. It’s wonderful to see my befriendee and her baby son develop and grow- it’s really rewarding."
