Are you currently expecting a baby?

Do you have young children?

If so, we would love for you to be a part of our Parent and Carer Panels.

We need your help to improve the services in the Bradford district for all parents/carers - from pregnancy, to the child's second birthday and beyond.

Your voice will help us to provide the best for you and your family, and to help us shape the services offered through our Family Hubs and Start for Life offer. Complete the 'Register your interest' form by clicking the button below (it'll only take a minute), and we'll be in touch!

Who else will be part of the panel?

We want to encourage all mums, dads, carers who are pregnant or have young children. This is because we want to hear their views and opinions about the Family Hubs and Start for Life offer.

We want to hear from a diverse group of parents and carers to ensure we listen to all voices in the community.

What will we talk about?

We want to listen to local parents and carers about the services on offer, where they are delivered, how well they work and what we could do better.

Panel members can take part in activities such as focus groups and surveys as part of this.

What support will be available?

We want to enable a wide range of people to take part, so we will discuss with you what you need to join us. A few examples of what we can offer include:

a welcoming space for all members, including children
local face to face panels across the district.
an offer to access panels virtually.
refreshments will be provided at all face to face meetings.

We will support with any other accessibility needs to enable you to fully participate in meetings/training.
