Those going above and beyond to support parents experiencing Child to Parent Abuse are set to be recognised.

During the first ever CPA Awareness Day on Friday (14^th October), PEGS Founding Director Michelle John announced the launch of our ‘CPA Heroes’.

She said: “We’re working hard to improve professional responses to CPA as well as public knowledge, and as part of that we wanted to highlight the incredible kindness, support and care being offered all around the UK.

“It could be that a family has come into contact with a professional who’s done everything they can to be there for them – a GP, social worker, police officer or teacher for example.

“But equally your CPA Hero could be a fantastic friend, family member, neighbour or colleague.

“CPA Heroes is not only about giving our heartfelt thanks to those people, but also to demonstrate that there are fantastic individuals out there who go above and beyond in either a personal or professional capacity.

“We’re really looking forward to seeing the nominations that come in, and we’ll also be getting together as a team to discuss who we’d like to put forward – so winners will either be a CPA Hero as voted for by PEGS parents or by PEGS professionals.

“We’re hoping to get a fantastic response and, if so, will look to make this an annual event to ensure we continue to give thanks to the wonderful people out there making a difference to families experiencing Child to Parent Abuse.”

Nominations are now until 5pm on Wednesday 30^th November – entries should be emailed to admin@pegsupport.com and should include the name, organisation (if applicable) and address (if known) of the nominee, plus the reason you’re nominating them. Please also indicate if you’re happy for the CPA Hero to be notified of your name (we won’t make this information public).

Please note, PEGS staff cannot be included in the CPA Heroes nominations.
