Using these parent resources
How is this different from the Free Parent Hub?
The Free Parent Hub introduces your support options and free learning modules. This resources page helps you find public guides, checklists and templates for specific questions or tasks.
Do I need to register to read the guides?
No registration is needed for public guidance pages. Member learning modules require registration. Check individual resource pages for access details.
Is everything linked here free?
The page prioritises free guidance and links to free learning modules. The Parent Power Pack, Beyond Diagnosis and personalised services are optional paid offerings, labelled separately.
Does my child need a diagnosis?
No. You can use the guidance while exploring concerns, awaiting assessment or understanding an existing diagnosis.
Can someone review my child’s paperwork?
Personalised reviews are separate services. Contact us to discuss your enquiry, the documents involved and the appropriate scope and fee.
Where should I start?
Choose the topic or practical task closest to your current situation. You do not need to read everything or follow a fixed order.
