Why join the Parent Panel?
Why join the Parent Panel?
Current Parent Panel members tell us why they joined - and what they've got out of the experience:
"I applied to join the panel after reading about it on Netmums. I thought "ordinary" parents should have their say on the issues they deal with day in, day out, such as child benefit and childcare costs." - Jo, Parent Panel member
"I liked the media training because it was lead by professionals and very practical. I also enjoyed meeting the other parents and sharing stories." - Veronique , Parent Panel member
" I joined the Parent Panel as I believe that I it important for normal parents to get their voices heard by government and the public, otherwise we are all saying the same thing and feeling that we are not being listened to. Daycare Trust offers a vehicle to get views across to both the government and other policy makers." - Melanie, Parent Panel member
