'Netball improved my mental health'

After mother-of-seven Shaharun Nessa was diagnosed with severe postnatal depression, she came across a Back to Netball taster session - and after picking up a netball, she was hooked.

She spread the word in her local community, school and mosque and managed to get 35 women from different backgrounds together to play netball at her first session.

She now runs a netball group which is inclusive for Muslim women and says it helped improve her mental health.
