We closed off the show with an interview with Ingrid Meintjes - Advocacy and communications coordinator of the Perinatal Mental Health Project. We were talking about the launch of their latest site at Hanover Park Maternity Obstetric Unit. PMHP is an independent initiative based at the University of Cape Town . It provides a counselling service in 4 public obstetric facilities in Cape Town as one out of three women living in poverty in South Africa will suffer from a mental health problem related to her pregnancy.
