A postnatal course for new mums will be launched in Swindon on Monday. The weekly course, which is being run by the National Childbirth Trust, will comprise half an hour of exercises and an hour of discussion over refreshments.

The classes are an ideal opportunity for mothers to meet new friends and discuss their experiences with them.

In order for mothers to take part in the exercises they must have had their six-week check up.

For more information about the sessions, contact the NCT Swindon branch on 07005 801635.
