Get Involved as a Parent
At RECAP, parents are at the heart of everything we do.
Our mission is to make research and evidence accessible, practical, and relevant to family life — and that starts with listening to you.
By getting involved, you’ll help shape how research is shared, make sure it reflects real family experiences, and connect with a community that values trusted information and shared understanding.
Join the RECAP Parent Panel
Our Parent Panel brings together parents and caregivers from a wide range of backgrounds to share insights, experiences, and honest feedback.
As a panel member, you can:
- Take part in short surveys or online discussions about family life and parenting topics
- Review upcoming RECAP content to ensure it feels relevant and accessible
- Help shape future projects, resources, and events
- Be part of a community influencing how research reaches families
You don’t need to be an expert — just a parent or caregiver with lived experience and a willingness to share your thoughts.
Share Your Story
We know that behind every piece of research are real people and real stories.
If you have personal experiences or reflections connected to topics we cover — from education and wellbeing to relationships and health — we’d love to help you share them.
You can contribute by:
- Taking part in a podcast episode or video feature
- Writing or co-authoring a short parent perspective piece
- Joining a panel discussion with researchers or practitioners
Your story could help others feel seen, supported, and informed.
Attend a Webinar or Event
We regularly host free and low-cost webinars on topics that matter most to families — from mental health and learning to digital wellbeing and parenting confidence.
By taking part, you’ll:
- Hear directly from researchers and practitioners
- Gain practical, evidence-based tips for family life
- Be part of a community of curious, reflective parents
