Today is Parent Mental Health Day, and the reality for parents in the UK is deeply concerning.
New research from the National Parent Survey 2025 reveals that:
• 1 in 3 parents find parenting difficult
• 860,000 parents feel lonely every single day
• 1 in 7 parents never speak to another parent
Parenting is one of the most important roles in society - yet too many parents are struggling in silence, juggling time pressures, emotional fatigue, financial stress and a lack of support.
We believe parental mental health deserves recognition, compassion and action - not stigma.
If you’re a parent and this resonates with you, please know you are not alone. Start a conversation. Reach out for support. Check in on another parent today. And if you can, help amplify this message so parents’ voices are heard.
Together, we can build a culture where parents are supported - not overlooked.
