With 1 in 3 marriages ending in divorce or separation, single parents are everywhere. A marital or relationship breakdown is hard for everyone involved and especially when there are children involved it can be even harder.

In this episode we chat to single parent Ste Walker, who has recently set up a Facebook group dedicated to bringing single parents together across the North West.

The group has been set up to create a support network for other single parents and Ste's vision is to reduce isolation and loneliness for single parents and create great opportunities to meet up with others in a similar situation. It is not a dating site but serves to connect people who can share from their experiences and help others and make new friends for both them and their kids!

In just a few weeks the group as reached over 250 members and we talk about the purpose of the group, how you can get involved and find out more.

You can find a link for the group below. If you're a single parent then why not take a look or share with anyone you know who might benefit from being a member.
