Loneliness among parents of young children
Our work
We work to make the UK a better place for families, focusing on childcare and the early years to make a difference to families’ lives now and in the long term.
Research
Our research provides definitive data on the issues families face and holds government to account.
Parent-led programmes
Our parent-led programmes support families to achieve their potential and services to meet families’ needs.
Advocacy
We make change happen by bringing together what we learn from our research and programmes to campaign for solutions that parents need.
Childcare guides for parents
Our guides can help you find, choose and afford childcare near you.
Our policy goals
Many parents in the UK are frozen out of work by the high cost and low availability of childcare. We need to make childcare work for all of us.
