Parenting experts call on Sadiq Khan to roll out parenting support to all schools in London

Meave Darroux is Co-founder and CEO of Brilliant Parents, currently working across the boroughs of Hillingdon, Brent, Harrow, and Hammersmith and Fulham delivering Triple P parenting courses. She has called on Sadiq Khan to make parenting support accessible to all families in London, saying:

“All children have an innate ability to succeed, but life can knock them back in one way or another, and all of us know what a challenging time this has been for the whole country. At Brilliant Parents, we know that when given the right support, parents can have a major impact on their children’s happiness and health. We want to be able to give non-judgemental advice and support that is backed by research and proven by parents, to as many families in London as possible.”

“Brilliant Parents know that three in four parents feel there is a stigma attached to asking for help. We have seen how providing parenting support through schools can remove and eliminate that stigma because the support is there, openly available, and parents can hear from other parents about the success they have had. Mums and dads don’t need to feel singled out”
