Parentchannel.tv is a free online service designed to support and encourage parents and carers of children aged 5-19, with a collection of videos addressing a wide range of parenting topics.

The short videos contain advice from over 50 experts and parent/child case studies. The content is divided into three simple categories: learning, behaviour and wellbeing. The topics cover areas from the everyday to the hard hitting: bullying, gangs, homework, sex, stress, depression, family life, discipline, drugs, runaway teens, disability, bereavement and many more.

Each video also signposts to other more in-depth information, services and helplines. The plan is to include even more videos catering for the 0-5 age range.
