Gingerbread is the charity for single parents. We challenge discrimination, and campaign against the inequalities single parents face. We support single parents by providing them with expert advice and information. And we build connections – providing a support network so that no single parent is ever alone
Our campaigns have led to changes in the law. We’ve influenced the government and challenged stigma and stereotypes.
Our expert advice and information help tens of thousands of single parents every year. Through our policy work, we ensure that our members’ concerns and experiences are taken to the heart of Westminster and our in-person and online communities can be found across England and Wales, providing support and friendship to thousands of single parents and their children.
In 2022, we launched our latest strategy with a focus on improving the financial situation and the mental health and wellbeing of single parents
