## Description
Funding opportunity: Help to grow peer-led parent support in Wokingham
Wokingham Borough Council will shortly be looking for an organisation to lead and grow parent-led support across the borough, creating more opportunities for parents to connect and access evidence-based support for parenting.
We’re offering £300,000 over an initial three years to deliver Empowering Parents, Empowering Communities (EPEC) – an evidence-based programme that trains parents to become lead facilitators, creating a model of support that is by parents, for parents.
The programme will be a key part of Wokingham’s Best Start in Life offer and will complement the developing Family Hub offer, alongside other parent support groups and programmes provided by schools and voluntary and community organisations.
Collaboration will be central to this opportunity. The organisation that wins this tender will need to work in close partnership with other services across the Borough, building on what already exists and working together as a community to strengthen support for parents.
Find out more about Empowering Parents, Empowering Communities (EPEC).
Find out more about Best Start in Life in Wokingham.
A virtual and in-person information session will both take place on the 22nd October at 12.30.
If your organisation could help us make parent-led support a bigger part of family life in Wokingham, we’d love to hear from you.
Please feel free to get in touch with any initial questions: ChildrensCommissioningTeam@wokingham.gov.uk
