Parent Network Scotland (PNS) is a national parent-led organisation based in Glasgow, but working across many local authorities in Scotland. Parent Network Scotland was originally part of Parent Line Plus in London, which was founded in 1986. Parent Network Scotland became independent in 1999 and went on to develop a Scotland-wide network of facilitators.

Parent Network Scotland is a National charity that is run for parents by parents. All our facilitators are parents who have been extensively trained to offer you helpful tools and techniques on our courses. Our family courses make parenting easier and more enjoyable. The organisation now has a staff team based in Glasgow, with trainees and Family Hub Coordinators located in several local authorities.

We also make sure our courses are free to parents through online and face to face family learning which is fun with many routes you can take through the courses completing with your very own course certificate and accrediation.

Parent Network Scotland believes in peer-to-peer support and that parents themselves have the solutions to many of the challenges they face such as eliminating poverty, dealing with ACE's, building resilience and making life better for our next generation, all with the support and encouragement of trained parent facilitators and other parents.

Parent Network Scotland is also supported by a range of contracts from the voluntary and statutory sectors.
