ABOUT US

We are a community of lived-experience parents who came together because the system wasn’t listening. What started as Parents for Change (P4C) — a grassroots movement advocating for better support for families — has grown into a recognised voice for reform and collaboration with policymakers.

As our work expanded, we created Parents for Parents (P4P), a registered charity that connects families with services, projects, and resources.

Together, P4P and P4C ensure that parents are not only supported but also heard at the highest levels.

Our mission is simple

To support families with timely, trusted resources.

To amplify parent voices for systemic change.

To bridge the gap between lived experience and decision-makers.
