Being a parent for the first time can be a very daunting experience. Raising a child is a tough job that – while rewarding – brings with it an incredible amount of responsibilities. However, you don’t have to shoulder all of this by yourself. There’s plenty of support for new parents that will give your child the best start possible in life and alleviate the stress of raising kids.
Whether you need financial advice, emotional support, guidance or information on how to cope with being a single parent, Tower Hamlets Council, as well as other independent organisations, can help you. See the links below for more information.
