• Becoming a member is a way of saying YES to supporting parents – NCT represents the needs and priorities of parents across the UK, at both Government and local policy levels, to ensure continued improvements in parent services.  Your membership also helps NCT to continue to deliver services such as our busy helplines and to support disadvantaged parents through a range of practical outreach projects.  
• Being a member gives you the opportunity to give something back - You may be one of thousands of people that have benefited from the services of the NCT. Becoming a member is a way of giving back to that community, by volunteering or simply through your membership fee. This will help ensure that the NCT is there to help other parents in the future.
