Perinatal and Infant Mental Health Fund launches a national survey

The survey aims to capture information on third sector organisations who are delivering Perinatal and Infant Mental Health (PIMH) services in Scotland and will be used to inform future developments in the sector.

We would like to hear from third sector organisations delivering PIMH support and organisations and agencies who refer families to third sector PIMH services.

Fill out the survey here.

We are gathering information about:

  • PIMH third sector provision across Scotland
  • Referrals and demand for PIMH third sector services
  • Funding sources for PIMH third sector services

This will build on the data we captured since 2022 and will be used to produce a 2025 PIMH Third Sector Insight Report. We will share the report with the Scottish Government, other early years and independent funders, and publicly on our website.

The report will inform us and stakeholders about the sector’s current position and support and influence future development.

This survey will close at 12PM (midday) on Friday 28th February 2025 and should take up to 10 minutes to complete.
