Support For Parents: Let's Unite as a Village

Updated: May 23, 2023

Let's unite as a village. We need a village more than ever.

It’s at times like these that the world calls for us to stop and start to think about what really matters. To pause and take stock of how we are living our life. Think about how we support and protect our children, our relatives, our friends and our community. Think about how we can support those people down the road, around the corner, or in our wider community. To work out how to offer unconditional help that will make a difference.


There are many uncertainties. We don’t know what will close when or when things will return to normal. But we do know that now is the time to rebuild the village!


As part of a Village, we:

  • Connect. We call email, write and check in with those we love.

  • Buy only what we need. Many people can’t buy a month’s worth of food ... When they need it, they need to be able to access it.

  • Help. If our family, friends and neighbours need help, we are ready to give it. Dropping off supplies, making a meal, picking up the phone.

  • Stay strong. As Parents, we need to be a safe place for our children, who pick up on all our emotions, regardless of whether they are old enough to know their cause.

  • Follow the Government’s health guidelines to keep the vulnerable members of our Village safe.

  • Keep ourselves isolated if we are recommended to do so. We can use this time to rest and connect with our families.
