Together, we support single parents by challenging social stigma and influencing government policies for fair treatment.

Our priorities include:

  • Reforming the Child Maintenance Service (CMS)
  • Securing flexible working
  • Making childcare work
  • Tackling poverty and improving welfare support
  • Ensuring all policy reflects the needs of single parents

We collaborate with parents, policymakers, and media to drive change and amplify single parents’ voices.
