Parents-Carers Panels

Diverse group of adults

As part of the Family Hubs and Start For Life programme, Enfield Parent and Carer Panels are forums where parents and carers work together with local service commissioners to co-design and evaluate services.

This helps to ensure babies and their families are at the centre of service design and delivery.

Parent and Carer Panel is a very good opportunity for parents-carers to come together to share parenting experiences, discuss issues and contribute to service design and delivery in Enfield.

The group comes together regularly:

  • Talk about their experiences of the services within the Start For Life offer and feel more confident accessing them
  • Provide feedback on how these services can develop and work better together
  • Have a direct influence on helping to further develop the Start For Life offer.

Who can join the panel?

Mums, Dads, Carers, Grandparents, Kinship carers who are either expecting a new baby in the family or have responsibility for a child under two–year-old.

Where the panel meets?

The panel meets regularly, at least once every 4 weeks. Meetings are held face-to-face or online depending on the availability of parents-carers.

Meetings are planned well in advance and support is provided to help parents-carers to attend.

Further Information

If you are interested or have any questions, please send us an email for an informal chat in the first instance. If selected, panel members are required to attend regular meetings with an ongoing commitment of at least two hours each month.
