Parenting

We would like to achieve a future in which any parent within the district who needs support will know where to turn and be able to benefit from a range of appropriate and accessible services. Improving parents' skills, taking preventative measures and using enforcement action to reduce anti social behaviour will contribute to strengthening communities.

Bolsover Parenting Strategy

We recognise that the majority of parents in the district do a good job, often in challenging circumstances. That's why we have adopted a Parenting Strategy setting out the overall objectives of parenting provision and the levels of support that are or will be available. These range from general information through to specialist services including access to evidence based parenting programmes.  This document gives an overview of our approach to supporting positive and responsible parenting in Bolsover district.

Parenting Courses

Free parenting courses are available throughout the district.

For further information please contact the Senior Parenting Practitioner at Bolsover District Council, Sherwood Lodge, Bolsover, Derbyshire S44 6NF, telephone 01246 242424 or submit an enquiry form.
