Our vision is to champion the work of parenting as a force for better outcomes for children and young people. We want the next generation of adults to care about making our society a better place for all.
We want young people to have the character, behaviour and skills necessary to lead healthy, happy and productive lives. To tend to and forge their relationships, so that they can give back and feel a sense of belonging. To care for their world so that they can confidently take on their responsibility to society, make contributions, and make a prosperous society for all. We believe parents play a big part in making this happen.
Parents and all those that have a responsibility for children should be placed at the heart of our society: for preparing, equipping and empowering young people to realise their potential so that they can become productive members of society.
We believe good parenting is the bedrock for building a healthy and thriving society and so that our efforts and resources should be channelled here: where parents can get the support they need to teach, model, cultivate and instil values that support healthy childhood and responsible adulthood.
Funding from the Coronavirus Community Support Fund, distributed by The National Lottery Community Fund, has helped Parent Power organise programmes for parents of teenagers. Our thanks to the Government for making this possible.
The Teens That Thrive Programme is designed for parents of teenagers. This programme has been designed to provide parents with the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to raise teenagers into successful adults.
Parent Power is working to support young people with additional needs. We believe in supporting a better path to adult life for young people with additional needs. Our work involves raising aspirations for young people so they can have a positive adult life, with employment, independent living, good health, friends, relationships, and feel connected to their community.
Parent Power works with beneficiaries, stakeholders and other agencies through partnership and collaboration. We will recruit volunteers as Parent Champions who will be involved in service design and delivery.
