Our local NCT community groups help thousands of parents every year.

Our incredible network of local volunteers makes NCT the supportive community it is.
I love being part of our local NCT community. When we first moved here, I knew no-one. I was completely floored by motherhood. It was the local NCT community who welcomed me and helped pick me up. I decided it was time to give back and it continues to pay off for me. I met brilliant parents, made life-long friends and had loads of laughs and cake along the way”
Local NCT community activities
Local NCT events and fundraisers are all organised by our amazing network of volunteers. You will join a wonderful team who will help you learn the ropes and do brilliant things for parents. How you help and what you achieve is up to you!
Become a volunteer
Join over 4,500 volunteers who support parents. Like you, our volunteers care about birth, babies and parenting. There are around 625,000 births every year and we want to make sure that no-one parents alone.
Having fun with other parents and volunteers is key to keeping connected, and we make sure NCT volunteering is fun, flexible and family friendly. We love cake and as a team we know how to get things done while having a laugh.
With so many parents to help, we’re always looking for volunteers to join our mission. Could you help your local NCT community to achieve even more?
