Being pregnant or being a parent is not always easy and sometimes you need a little extra help than you can find in your immediate circle of friends and family. We have gathered together details of local and national organisations who are able to offer help, advice, support, counselling and friendship.
Some are professional counselling services, others are groups of parents sharing experiences - such as a child with special needs or the loss of a child, whilst others are local groups of parents who just want to get to know other parents in their region.
