Free Togetherness Parenting Pathways

Parenting isn’t always easy — whether you’re expecting your first baby or supporting a teenager through tough times.

We’ve teamed up with Togetherness (formerly the Solihull Approach) to offer free, NHS-developed Pathways to support you in understanding your child’s growing mind and body.

These Pathways cover every stage of family life, from pregnancy to the teenage years, and even your relationships.

All Pathways can be completed online at your own pace. Other languages are available for some courses.
