Families

As a marriage support organisation, Marriage Care has a very definite stake in marriage and all adult long-term relationships. We are concerned with the institution of marriage and its meaning in today's society, as well as the quality of individual committed adult relationships. We help people prepare for, achieve and sustain successful marriages and to support them should they experience marital breakdown.

Parentline Plus is a national charity that works for, and with, parents.

We know that parents want to do the best they can for their children, but sometimes family life can be challenging and difficult. There is after all, no one right way to parent.

In the UK there are over 24 million people who parent – it’s not just mums and dads who do it. Families come in all shapes and sizes. Grandparents, step-parents, brothers, sisters, other relatives, friends and foster carers are all involved in raising happy, healthy children. Parentline Plus works to offer help and support through an innovative range of free, flexible, responsive services - shaped by parents for parents.
