A fair start for every child
Welcome to Both Parents, a campaign dedicated to championing equal parenting rights in the UK. We know that children thrive when they have meaningful relationships with both parents, especially after separation. Join us in advocating for a rebuttable presumption of equal parenting time, ensuring a brighter future for families across the nation.
The issue
In the UK, parental separation affects approximately 280,000 children each year, contributing to the 2.5 million separated families in Great Britain. We address the challenges these families face and explain our mission to provide support through our campaign.
Our campaign
Our campaign promotes a rebuttable presumption of equal parenting time after separation. This means, unless there’s evidence to suggest otherwise, the starting point should be for children to spend equal time with each parent. Learn how you can support this crucial change in UK family law.
About us
Both Parents is a UK-based campaign dedicated to advocating for equal parenting rights after separation. Founded on the evidence that children benefit from strong relationships with both parents, we strive to influence UK family law to better reflect this principle, fostering a more equitable environment for separated families.
