JohnLeeds has unique offer for families called ‘Empowering Parents, Empowering Communities’ (EPEC). It is a peer-led approach to delivering parenting training which is delivered by volunteer parents in their local community.
The parenting course is called Being a Parent (BAP) in line with the Leeds Children and Young People’s Plan 2023-2028
EPEC parenting courses are led by local volunteer parent group leaders, who have completed their EPEC training and receive ongoing training and supervision. They are supported by an EPEC parenting coordinator to ensure that volunteers have the skills and support to deliver high quality parenting courses. Being A Parent is an empowering, feel-good course which supports all parents.
The EPEC course is run across Leeds, but for this to continue we are looking for more volunteers. We need mums, dads and carers to become a parent groups leaders to deliver the Being a Parent (BAP) course.
