About Somerset Parent Carer Forum

Somerset Parent Carer Forum is a parent led organisation.Our core purpose is to ensure parent carers in Somerset have a voice and help to make sure that services reflect the needs of local families.
As parent carers we know how hard it can be at times. There can be lots of information and it can be hard to know where to start. Sometimes you just need to talk to someone who ‘gets it’.

We provide a range of information and support for parent carers in Somerset. We run groups for you to meet up with other parents , workshops to get information and a phone line where you can speak to one of our parent representatives. All of these are run by parent carers who have a shared lived experience.
