Our Story & Co is a Community Interest Company

We’re focused on supporting women and families across Reading, West Berkshire and surrounding areas.

We exist to reduce isolation, build confidence and provide practical support, both in the community and in the home.

We support families at all stages, from pregnancy and postnatal recovery through to families with older children, as well as women who want to build confidence and focus on their own wellbeing.

Our support includes

• community groups
• practical courses and workshops
• postnatal movement and support sessions
• personalised in-home support through Mumease

Our aim is simple: to help people feel more supported, more confident and better able to manage everyday life.

Hayley Brazil

Our Founder

Hayley founded Our Story & Co after more than 20 years of working with families in the local community.

As a former Family Support Worker, she has supported a wide range of families through different stages of parenting.

Alongside her professional background, Hayley is a mum of four, including a child with additional needs.

Her own experiences of motherhood, including anxiety, isolation and loss, have shaped her understanding of how important the right support can be.

What began as a focus on early parenthood has grown into wider support for families at different stages, as well as women looking to build confidence and feel more in control of their lives.

Through groups, courses and personalised in-home support, her work focuses on creating practical, supportive spaces where people feel understood, more confident and less alone.
