As a parent or carer, you are responsible for bringing up a child or young person, promoting their wellbeing, health and development and protecting them from harm.

Most parents and carers in North Lanarkshire do a very good job but it can be difficult at times and sometimes parents, or others caring for a child, need some advice, help or support.

For advice on caring for a child or young person, talk to your health visitor, GP, teacher or your social worker. You can also contact Parentline Scotland which provides free telephone advice to any adult caring for a child or young person in Scotland. Call them on 08000 28 22 33 or visit the website – Parentline Scotland

If you are concerned about your child or another child speak out.  If child is in immediate danger contact the police.
