Parenting Focus

Parenting Focus, the leading organisation in Northern Ireland is dedicated to supporting parents and ensuring their voices are heard in decisions that affect them. Established in 1979, Parenting Focus, formerly known as the Parents Advice Centre and later Parenting NI, provides free support through a range of services, including a Freephone Support Line, family support services and a variety of programmes and workshops. Our mission is to ensure parents have access to timely support and information to guide them through their parenting journey. Our vision is of a society where parenting is valued, parents' voices are heard and every family receives the support they need. We believe that the best and most effective way to support children is by supporting those who parent them and we strive to deliver responsive and accessible parenting support and advocacy across the region.
