Design principles
Design principles for maternal and perinatal mental health services when designing information for the Gypsy and Traveller community.
Mums within the community, either going through pregnancy, or caring for young children, have said that they can feel isolated and overwhelmed at times. They have said that they’re unaware of information or support available. When community members have sought help and received information from services, it is often confusing and inaccessible leading to misunderstandings and disengagement. Following these principles will make your communications more inclusive and accessible to the community.
