Support That Understands: Our Service for Parent Carers  

1st September 2025

If you're a parent caring for a child with additional needs, you're not alone — and you don’t have to navigate everything by yourself.  

Our Parent Carer Support service is here to offer practical advice, emotional support, and a listening ear. Whether you're looking for help understanding your options, managing day-to-day challenges, or simply need someone to talk to, we’re here for you.  

We’re also pleased to welcome Alice Lancaster as our new Parent Carer Support Officer. Alice brings warmth, experience, and an understanding of the pressures parent carers face. She’s here to help you feel more confident, connected, and supported in your caring role.  

For Bristol Parent Carers Only 

This service is specifically for parent carers living in Bristol. If you're based in Bristol and caring for a child with additional needs, we’d love to hear from you. 

How to get in touch

To access support, please register with us as a parent carer using this link. Once you’ve registered, we’ll be in touch as soon as we can to talk about how we can support you.
