Equal Parenting Week – List of Resources and Support available

HCC are recognising Equal Parenting Week this April, a national campaign celebrating modern parenting for the first time and the important role all parents and carers play in family life.

Equal parenting is about recognising that all parents deserve equal opportunity, equal support, and equal consideration at work — whether they are mums, dads, same-sex parents, step-parents, adoptive parents or carers balancing work and family life.
