Amma HQ’s walls come to Life

When we moved into our new office in June 2023, it was a huge, empty, white space. Since then we’ve been making the space feel more and more like a home – with new walls and doors built for us by Top Drawer Joinery , cosy furnishings, our Amma signature colours, photos and art, and of course plenty of toys for the kids.

The last exciting part of this process has been a series of wall decorations and murals by our wonderful long-term collaborator Alice Dansey-Wright.

Miles for Mamas 2024 – run or walk to raise money for Amma

It’s a new year and race season is coming up fast!
Last year we had an amazing time at the Supernova Run in Falkirk, and the Kiltwalk all the way from Glasgow Green to Balloch – and we’re getting ready to do it all again! Will you join us to walk and run #milesformamas and raise money for our services, to ensure that pregnant people in Glasgow don’t have to give birth alone? We have two amazing events coming up this spring, which will be wonderful opportunities to have fun, get fit, and support Amma all at the same time.

A Very Amma Holiday – AmFam’s Holiday Celebration

This holiday season, our Peer Support Volunteers took Amma’s festive celebration into their own hands, and they created such a beautiful occasion for everyone. For many it was the first time they had planned a festive get together, and they poured such love and enthusiasm into every element of the party. From the decorations to entertainment to costumes to choosing the best snacks, every detail was considered. And the result was the warmest, most delightful day, with treats for all!
