This time of year can feel full, emotional, joyful, overwhelming — sometimes all at once. And many of us know someone who could really use a little extra support right now.
x
Someone who might be TTC, newly pregnant, recovering postnatally, or simply trying to feel strong again in the midst of motherhood.
x
So this Christmas, we want to help you treat them.
From 7–24 December, we’ll be gifting a free 12-month membership to The Bump Plan every single day — no strings, no catch, just kindness.
All you need to do is leave a comment below telling us:
-
Who you’d love to treat
-
Why they matter to you
-
Which stage they’re in (TTC, Pregnancy, Postnatal, or Life)
And yes — you can comment as many times as you like.
Every comment counts as a new entry, and every day, someone special will wake up to the surprise of a year’s access to a plan designed just for them.
Why we’re doing this
At The Bump Plan, we see every day how much you support each other — in your TTC journeys, your pregnancies, your postnatal recoveries, your long-term strength goals, and everything in between.
We know that not everyone can access the help they need.
Sometimes it’s financial.
Sometimes it’s a lack of knowledge.
Sometimes it’s simply that someone has been pouring from an empty cup for far too long.
This giveaway is our way of paying it forward, celebrating the people who lift you up, and reminding someone you love that they’re not alone.
Whether it’s a friend who’s just had a baby, a sister trying to conceive, a colleague quietly struggling with recovery, or someone who’s years post-postnatal but finally ready to focus on themselves — we’d love to support them with you.

What each stage means
TTC – For anyone preparing the body for pregnancy, supporting fertility, and building strength safely.
Pregnancy – Trimester-specific workouts filmed by Hollie while pregnant herself, helping people feel strong, safe, and supported every step of the way.
Postnatal – Gentle early recovery → progressive rebuild → strength for life. Suitable from day 1 or years after birth.
Life – For anyone pre-TTC or post-postnatal who simply wants to feel fit, strong, mobile, and supported long term.
(If their children are older or they’re between pregnancies, this is likely the right plan.)
How it works
✨ From 7–24 December we’ll choose one nomination every day.
To enter, just:
-
Leave a comment below telling us who you’d love to treat
-
Tell us why they’d love The Bump Plan
-
Mention which stage they’re in (TTC, Pregnancy, Postnatal, or Life)
-
Comment again anytime you want — each comment = one entry
Winners receive a full 12-month membership to the stage that suits them best.
We’ll contact the nominators directly via email to arrange the gift.
There’s no purchase necessary.
This really is just a moment of kindness.
A few gentle guidelines
Please nominate someone else rather than entering for yourself.
Maybe:
-
Someone who can’t afford a membership right now
-
Someone who’s had a tough year
-
Someone who’d benefit from expert support
-
Someone who deserves to feel stronger, calmer, more themselves
Let’s make this a month full of generosity and support — the very heart of what The Bump Plan stands for.

My sister in law who loves Pilates adjusting amazingly to two little ones!
This is such a lovely idea! I’d love to nominate my friend em, she’s currently pregnant and enjoying remaining active but I think she’d benefit from your guidance too – I did your plan through conceiving, pregnancy and post natal and I think it was a life saver for me, 5 months post partum I’m doing really well and even back into reformer Pilates so I’m very happy with my journey with the bump plan and would use it on subsequent pregnancies. Merry Christmas!
My best friend Karen who had a traumatic labour and also had to move out of her home and into a spare room with in laws a week before giving birth. Now finally in their new home with a six week old baby and could really use some tlc!

My lovely friend Hayley, because I know how much being strong and active helps her. Pregnancy.
My sister-in-law Catherine who has recently has a beautiful baby girl, making me an auntie for the first time! I think Catherine would love the bump plan post natal to get strong again post-natal.
My friend Polly who is fab mamma to 2 boys (hoping to make it 3 if she can get her husband on board!). She moved house & got married this year and I think she could do with a bit of Pilates in her life!
My friend Steph who is 12 weeks postpartum. She’s adjusting to life with 2 boys. She loves yoga but I don’t think she has given Pilates a go – I think this would be great for her and it will encourage her to take pockets of time for herself.
I’d love to nominate my wife, Kelly.
Two years ago, we sadly went through a miscarriage, which had a huge impact on both of us. We’re now in a place where we’re trying again. Kelly loves Pilates, and Holly is a real inspiration to her – someone she truly looks up to.
Hi Mike, this is such a lovely nomination and we are so happy to announce that Kelly has been chosen as today’s winner. I’ve sent you an email, but please do shout if it doesn’t come through. Hollie x
My friend Mariel who is solo parenting two toddlers (2 & 3 y/o) and runs her own business supporting parents/babies. She also has a dog & an allotment! I hope she would be able to make some time for pilates at home in amongst all of that.
My wife, Ellis, she gave birth 3 months ago to our little girl and had hyperemesis throughout her whole pregnancy. It only stopped the day she went into labour! She was fairly active before pregnancy but due to the hyperemesis, she was bed bound for most of the 9 months and is starting from scratch again
Hi Zac, what a tough journey Ellis has had, and I’m sure she needs a lot of support to get back to feeling strong again. We would love to gift Ellis an annual plan and have sent you an email with all the details.! Merry Christmas! Hollie x
My wife, she had our little girl 3 months ago. Throughout her whole pregnancy, and the one before with our son, she suffered with hyperemesis. Going from being fairly active to mostly bed bound for the whole 9 months. Would love her to have this to start rebuilding again
Who: My sister, Liz
Why: She’s doing an amazing job solo-parenting 2 girls (9 & 6). My daughter and I love spending time with them all and we always receive a warm welcome. I think my sister would love these classes, particularly the shorter ones which she can squeeze into the small pockets of time she finds.
Which stage: Life
My friend Jenny! 24 weeks and a little nervous about it all.
Loves to focus and follow a plan.
Spends all her time giving therapy and I feel this is a nice way to give back x

My friend Eleanor who is pregnant currently. She would love to feel stronger and more like herself in pregnancy and post partum
Im nominating my gorgeous friend Tan. She’s a mum of 1 with another one due in Jan and she’s absolutely bossed staying on top of everything whilst also helping other mamas deliver their babies safely (she’s a Obstetrician). I really believe she deserves something special just for her now!
This is such a beautiful giveaway ❤️ thank you. I’d love to nominate my sister for the life plan (she lives in America but I’m hoping that would be okay). She’s had a really tough year but is still going strong supporting her family and her two children. She loves yoga for the mental health benefits it brings so I know Hollie’s fabulous teaching and the supportive atmosphere she creates will help her find her inner strength and a moment of calm for herself in her busy days, just like it has for me.
Hi Alyssia, definitely okay for American memberships. Your sister sounds wonderful. I’ve sent you an email with the details of her membership. Hx
My lovely little sister who has just had her first baby! I am so proud of her and can’t wait for our children to grow up together
My bestie, who’s been TTC for a while. She’s a busy A&E Doctor and I think she’d appreciate the convenience of the Bump Plan being able to fit alongside her shift pattern. X
Hi Danielle! She sounds wonderful, and this journey can be so difficult. We’d love to gift her. I’ll send you an email now. Hx
I’d like to nominate my cousin Louise. She is 12 weeks pregnant with a very longed for first baby. She is a primary school teacher and an all round brilliant human.
You helped me stay fit and active during my pregnancies, and massively aided my recovery afterwards. I would love her to experience the same!

My lovely friend Saf who’s an amazing mum to her daughter and expecting her 2nd baby next summer. Always shows up for her friends and family despite having a hard time with postnatal depression this year – would love to be able to treat her to something special x
My lovely friend Saf who’s an amazing mum to her daughter & expecting her second baby next year. Always there for her friends & family despite having a hard time with postnatal depression this year – would love to be able to treat her to something special x
I would love to nominate my big sister Safina, she has had a beautiful baby girl and is expecting baby number 2 soon. Had a hard pregnancy and also with postnatal depression. Keeping it together for her baby girls sake . She would benefit from that extra help and help her feel confident again.
Miriam, Safina sounds like she needs a boost. We would love to gift her! I’ve sent you an email. Hx
My big sister safina, had a beautiful baby girl and struggled with postnatal depression. Is now expecting baby number 2 and I would love to help her feel confident and feel like herself again. She deserves it
My wonderful friend Safina, who is an absolute rockstar, with a super kind heart and she is currently pregnant with baby number 2 (heading for 2 under 2)! She has been feeling down about her body, which is crazy because she looks insane!
I nominate my friend, Ale.
She is a few weeks ahead of me in her pregnancy. It would be lovely to go through the programme together, motivate each other and get to labour in the strongest and healthiest shape possible!
My best friend is nearly 12 weeks pregnant after nearly 6 years of trying and a few rounds of ivf and I would love for her to be able to do some pregnancy Pilates to help her relax and stay active. She has been so strong throughout the last few years
Ellis, what a lovely nomination. We’d love to help her out with an annual membership. I’ve sent you an email with the details of her membership. Hx
Would love to nominate my wife for this, she’s 13 weeks pregnant this week. She’s had a really tough start to the pregnancy as we are moving house and our house move has been delayed by almost 6 months due to septic tank issues so we won’t be in until well in to the new year meaning we’ve had to move between staying with friends and renting, so she hasn’t managed any consistency with seeing the same midwife or doctor for appointments. I think this could really help her grab a bit of time to herself and get in to a great work out routine which she has really missed with all the moving about.
Hi Mark, this sounds so tough and we’d love to help her find a source of consistency and some “me-time”. I’ve sent you an email with all the details for her annual membership. Hx
I’d like to nominate my friend Hayley, she’s due in June and been struggling so much so far
For my wife, Abi. On top of running her business, and absolutely smashing it. She cares too much for everyone and deserves something for herself.
We have been lucky enough to get pregnant, she is 5 weeks in and taking it all in her stride. I wish I could give her more but I know this Bump Plan will be a perfect Christmas present for her. thank you.
My friend who struggled to get pregnant for a number of years and is now 18 weeks pregnant. We are over the moon! She is determined to stay active during pregnancy and I know this will definitely help her.
Hi Rachel, what wonderful news. TTC can be such a long, lonely, physical journey. We’d love to help her. I’ve sent you the details of her annual membership. Hx
I would like to nominate my best friend who is currently pregnant and loves pilates.
She is the kindest, most selfless person anyone could meet and she would do anything to help others. She has supported me through two challenging pregnancies, rushing to my side each time when I had emergency c sections and I can’t think of anyone more deserving.
Hi Shauni – she sounds like gem! We’d love to gift her an annual membership! I’ve emailed you the details. Hx
I’d like to nominate my wife, Cathy.
She’s pregnant with our first. She’s the strongest person I know and she deserves to be looked after as well as she looks after me. On top of everything she normally does, she’s committed to having the safest, happiest, healthiest journey possible and this is absolutely something she’d appreciate so much.
