The PPI panel consist of four women from underserved groups and/or with lived experience of perinatal mental health problems based in Sheffield and Doncaster.

We consult with our PPI panel and independent professional stakeholders as part of a joint Project Steering Committee (PSC) to ensure the intervention is targeting specific needs of underserved women with a high risk of perinatal mental health problems.

• Review patient facing documents.

• Support the co-production of new materials to ensure they are accessible, patient friendly and culturally sensitive.

• Help design what the intervention will look like, in terms of what matters most to people in the community.

• Support with ideas on how to spread results and awareness of the project, as well as getting involved with presenting findings and producing summaries.
