Supporting Families
We know that many families are facing growing financial difficulties, especially with the current cost of living pressures. As autumn sets in, these challenges can feel even more overwhelming with colder weather and longer nights, and we want to support those families.
We would appreciate your support in letting families know about the advice and support available at Parent Club. By sharing this information, we can help ensure families know where to turn for budgeting tips, ways to maximize their income, and ideas for free or low-cost activities during the autumn holidays. Below, you'll find key areas where we've provided social assets for you to share with families:
1. Eating on a Budget
Healthy, affordable meals are crucial for family wellbeing. We’ve created budgeting tips and recipes that are simple, nutritious and cost-effective. These aim to make it easier for families to eat on a budget without compromising on quality.

2. Maximising Income
Families are always looking for ways to save money wherever they can, and many may feel like they've exhausted all options. However, Parent Club offers a range of advice on everything from saving money to information about benefits families may not be aware of, as well as additional ways to maximise their income such as gaining new skills or finding work.

3. Reducing Outgoings
We are committed to helping families reduce their outgoings wherever possible. From energy-saving tips to advice on reducing household costs, Parent Club is here to help families to ease financial pressure and improve household bills.

4. Free Activities for Autumn
The summer might be over and the days might be getting shorter and colder but we have no shortage of low cost activities to keep kids of all ages busy during the autumn holidays. From nature walks and community events to craft days and library activities, there’s something for all the family to enjoy while keeping costs down.

5. Reducing Anxiety and Stress
Worrying about money while trying to keep kids healthy, happy, and engaged can be exhausting. As a result, parents often push self-care to the bottom of their to-do list. We've put together simple tips to help mums and dads reduce stress and boost their mental health and well-being.
