Family Action supports ‘Lets Lose the Labels’, a new campaign from Gingerbread, the single parents’ charity.
The campaign seeks to combat the stigma and stereotyping around being a single parent.

A stable and loving family life is what gives children the security they need to be able to flourish and fulfill their potential. All families face difficulties and challenges and many will find ways to deal with their problems, getting the support they need from friends and relatives.
There are times, however, when problems can seem too overwhelming to manage, and parents may struggle at these times to provide a nurturing environment for their children.
Family Action works to tackle some of the most complex and difficult issues facing families today – including financial hardship, domestic abuse, mental health problems, learning disabilities, or substance misuse and alcohol problems.
These issues can have a huge impact on the stability of family life, and will have a significant impact on the health, wellbeing and development of children.
Family Action believes that families facing these difficulties should have the support they need to become stronger, happier and healthier. With the right kind of support, families can overcome their difficulties and give their children hope for a brighter future.
