Mothers' Union

Who we are

Established in 1876, we are a federation of independent Mothers’ Unions’ with four million members, in 84 countries, all of whom are affiliated to our UK based charity. In 2026, we celebrate our 150th anniversary. In 2018, we collectively supported almost one million people giving them the skills and knowledge to transform their lives. In addition, centrally raised funds from members and donors have enabled support for projects benefitting an additional 100,000 people annually.
