Parents Connect Wales have been asked by Welsh Government to find out some information from parents. They would like:-
- To gain a wider insight from parents/carers into what support and information they need/want in their parenting journey from birth to 18.
- To understand the awareness of parenting support from Welsh Government and of positive parenting
- To collect some feedback from parents on the ‘Parenting. Give It Time’ campaign and website
There are three different ways that this information will be collected: Online survey, Opinion poll, and Photo competition.
- A short survey: This is a short survey in an MS Form asking parents about their experiences of parenting. This will take parents about 5-10 minutes to complete. The surveys can be found using the following links:-
- Photo competition:- We will run a competition asking parents to take a photo to capture ‘Life as a Parent’. This can include their child/ children, an object, a scene or something abstract. They will be asked to supply a short caption or title for the photo. All participants will be entered into a draw to win a £50 Amazon voucher (attached)
- Mentimeter opinion poll:- This is a very short poll with 3 questions asking parents about their experiences of parenting

The deadline to hear from as many parents as possible is 13th October 2023. This is a great opportunity for Parents to make a difference and directly influence the work of Welsh Government.
