This report presents the findings of a parent-led evaluation of Parent Action [Previously known as PACT], a community-led social support
project for parents and children in their early years in South London,
run by community organising charity Citizens UK.
The evaluation was led by four Parent Facilitators, parents from the Parent Action community who were trained and supported to deliver three bilingual evaluation sessions to their peers. A total of 25 parents were
engaged across three sessions, using three different evaluation methods:
 Most Significant Change: where parents shared stories of what they thought was the most important change to them since joining Parent Action.
 Focus group discussions: where parents shared what they valued most about Parent Action and where
they thought Parent Action could improve.
 Ecomapping: where parents mapped their existing social support networks.
In addition, a rapid evidence review of previous Parent Action evaluations was conducted to identify existing evidence in which to situate the findings of this evaluation.
