A year in the parent village 2024
When the Parent Village was created last year, it started to take an idea and turn it into tangible action. The challenge this year has been to build on our initial success and to establish the Parent Village as a sustainable organisation for the longer term. This is no easy thing - especially in the current climate of uncertainty and limited funding - but through the leadership of the CEO and the support of my fellow trustees, we have been able to see continued growth and established robust foundations for the future.
The vision of the Parent Village - to support parents be the best they can be - is simple to say but fiercely complex to deliver. Parenting can be such a vulnerable and isolating experience, and it can be hard to reach out for help, to engage with support when it is offered. By ensuring that the work of the Parent Village remains rooted in its values - compassion, community, and respect - the charity has continued to help hundreds of parents navigate the complexities of modern life. This is an exiting time for the organisation, and 2025 promises to deliver even more impact.
