We are Scotland's leading shared parenting charity. We put the welfare and rights of the child at the heart of everything we do. Please visit our website if you want to know more: http://sharedparenting.scot
Next May, we’re climbing Ben Nevis for a cause that matters — because no child should lose a parent just because their parents separated.

Our goal: £5,200 — £4 for every metre scaled. Join us or donate to help keep children connected to both parents. 💙

Here's a throwback to our outing at the Glasgow Kiltwalk a few weeks ago, where we were joined by families and friends from across generations.

Taking part in the Kiltwalk helps raise awareness of shared parenting as walkers wear our t-shirt allowing many to see our message.
