The Mother Coven - Community Survey
It takes a village. We call ours a coven. đź–¤
The Mother Coven is a new community for mums and little ones, starting around Chester & Tarporley.
I want to create the kind of village I think so many of us are missing - somewhere to make genuine friendships, find support, bring our children, have things to look forward to and feel part of something.
But I don't want to assume what mums need. I want you to help shape it.
This little survey should only take 2–3 minutes and your answers will help shape our meet-ups, events and what The Mother Coven becomes.
Thank you for being here at the beginning. 🌙
