Gingerbread- for single parent families
We are the leading charity supporting single parent families in England and Wales. We are fighting to create a world where all single parents and their children don’t just survive, but thrive.
We provide expert advice and information to support all single parents through our website, webchat and helpline.
We provide local groups and online community spaces so that, with Gingerbread, no single parent is ever alone.
We campaign against the inequalities, injustices and stigma that single parents face every single day.
Who can use our services?
We define a single parent as any parent with the majority care of their children. We also understand that many parents who don’t have majority care will share the same challenges and responsibilities as those who do – so if you see yourself as a single parent, you are welcome to use our services, but you may find that some of our advice is less suited to your situation.
Please see our website for how to access our services.
