Putting children first across Scotland

 

Children 1st works to keep children safe, loved and well and together with their families.

Children do well when their families do well, so we work with children and families in their homes, local communities and across Scotland. We offer practical, emotional and financial support to prevent and protect children and their families from harm and to support them to recover from trauma and abuse.

We also work alongside children, young people and their families to uphold and progress their rights and to strengthen and improve the systems that are there to support them.

If your family are feeling stressed or anxious Children 1st Parentline can help.

 

We're here if you need to talk

    

  • Find support
    Children 1st Parentline is here to help. We offer emotional and practical support for every family in Scotland.
  • More than a donation

    Children and families across Scotland are facing a cost of living crisis. Your gift today is so much more than a donation - you will give children and families a brighter, hopeful and more secure future.
