Working Families is the UK’s work-life balance charity. Their mission is to remove the barriers that people with caring responsibilities face in the workplace.

​

They provide free legal advice to parents and carers on their rights at work and we advocate on behalf of the UK’s 13 million working parents, influencing policy through campaigns informed by ground-breaking research.

PTS believes in a world where women are not judged for the contents of their womb, or the hours they work, or the fact that they have porridge in their hair and smell of Sudocrem, but for their skills and talents. They believe in a world where stay-at-home parents are valued for their contribution to society. They believe in a world where both parents are encouraged to spend time with their children. They believe in a world where childcare is free and is the best it can possibly be for all children and all those who care for our children. They believe in a world where both parents contribute equally to the running of a household whilst achieving their own ambitions. They believe that mothers deserve better and they believe that if we work together we can, and we will, create change.

Financial help if you have children from the UK government. Includes help when having a baby or adopting, child benefit and tax credits, support for childcare.

Holistic support, solidarity & companions for birth, pregnancy & early parenthood, so no refugee or displaced mama goes it alone.

This is the home of everything we’ve done or written about Flexible Working since 2015: what it is, how to get it, and even some lycra-clad flashmobs of hundreds of people singing about it.
