Bedford Borough Council’s Early Help team has joined forces with partners from the voluntary sector and schools to deliver the Triple P service to help parents raise children and teenagers.
The Triple P “Positive Parenting Program” offers parents simple tips and practical strategies to help manage the big and small problems of family life.
The free service is aimed at families with children of all ages – and addresses problems like tantrums, teenage rebellion, self-esteem issues, bedtime battles, disobedience and aggression.
Triple P sessions and workshops will be delivered in schools and local community venues in Bedford over the coming months.
Bedford Borough Council portfolio holder for Education, Councillor Henry Vann, said:
“This partnership between Triple P, the Council's Early Help Team and the wider early help partnership, will really help support parents – and equip them with the key skills to deal with the challenges they may face in raising children and young people.
“This free programme supports our commitment to improving the lives of children throughout Bedford Borough.”
