Gingerbread

The Gingerbread community is for single parents in England and Wales.

Being a single parent can bring many rewards and also new challenges.

We offer online advice, support and information around some of the most common topics single parents ask us about for example, dealing with a break-up, bereavement, going back to work, child maintenance or Universal Credit issues, family law and the support available to help you navigate these challenges.

You can talk to us through our helpline or webchat.

We also provide some specific support for:

• LGBTQ+ single parenting
• Single parenting as a dad
• Single parenting as a teenager

Gingerbread is a registered charity.
