Teach the Parent puts young people in the educator’s seat as they provide their parents with climate education through informal conversations. We hope this will inspire our parents to take action on climate change and adopt more environmentally friendly practices in their lives.
On Thursday 8th June, in celebration of the UN's Global Day of Parents, and as part of Big Green Week, we want to show the impact young people can have in just one day. We want to support thousands of young people through their schools to join our campaign and teach their parents!
Be sure to shout about Teach the Parent day on social media with #TTPDay and join our Instagram live at 5pm on 8th June at @sosuk_charity.
Read some of our Teach the Parent success stories on the BBC here, to help you get inspired!
