One of our most important roles is to make the voices of parents heard. We urge government to consult properly with parents when considering policy with family implications and, thanks to our pressure, consultations with parents are taking a central role in the policy making process.

There is hardly an area of domestic policy that does not have an impact on families and we respond to this agenda by building strategic alliances with other groups and tackle issues as diverse as marketing to children, child poverty , family friendly employment policies and childcare.
