Bump Buddies is a free support service for women in City and Hackney who are pregnant or have children under school age. We offer guidance and companionship throughout early parenthood.
We focus on what matters most to women during pregnancy and motherhood. Our support includes:
- helping women connect with local services
- providing access to useful resources
- offering one-to-one support
- supporting the development of knowledge and skills to improve health and wellbeing
Together, we aim to build confidence, strengthen community connections, and create positive outcomes for pregnant women and new mothers.
Location: The Aldgate Centre, Aldgate High Street, EC3N 1AB
Join us for our weekly coffee and pastry mornings in our welcoming community hubs. It’s a great opportunity for mums and expectant mums to connect, share experiences, and receive support.

information to help plan your pregnancy and labour,
breastfeeding support,
help to access low cost and free baby equipment and clothing,
