Happity blog about MAHM
“Meeting local mums is fundamental to success in my opinion!” writes Emily Tredget. “It’s one of the reasons that Happity exists! And obviously during Covid this has been rather harder to do.”
She introduces the Happity Blog readers to the local support groups set up by Mothers at Home Matter.
Submission: Treasury Select Committee
MAHM’s contribution to the Treasury Select Committee’s ‘Tax after Coronavirus’ inquiry presented evidence to address the question: ‘Which areas of the tax system are most in need of reform?’
We focused specifically on income tax emphasising the pressing need for a fairer family taxation system. Our system of independent taxation is not fit for purpose for taxing families; it causes unfairness, injustice and even harm.

The MAHM conference is an annual event, usually held in central London. This is where members come to hear inspirational speakers, have tea and lunch, stay for the AGM and be re-inspired about their roles as mothers. It is also a chance to meet other members ‘in real life’ and find what unites us is so much more than what makes us different.
