Support for teenage parents
If you are a young parent or you are pregnant and expecting your baby soon, don’t feel like you have to struggle alone. If you are struggling to cope and you need information, advice or a little emotional support, ask somebody for help. If you can’t talk to your parents, siblings or friends, you can get in touch with Parentline Plus, Barnardos or Straight Talking, a national charity for teenage parents.
You will be entitled to financial support from the government, just like every other parent; to find out what help is available to you, you should contact your Local Authority.
