UCL Parents and Carers Together (PACT) is a volunteer-led grassroots network that brings parents and carers together on one platform to address the needs of a diverse community. The network directly meets the second strategic objective of the UCL 2020 Strategy: to 'improve the consistency of experience and support of staff and students around pregnancy, maternity, paternity, childcare and caring responsibilities.'
Student parents
If you're a student and a parent UCL can provide support and facilities to help you manage your studies alongside family life, including nursery care and family accommodation.
