Join The Parent Chapter
A space where parents can enjoy a hobby that's just for them, have meaningful adult conversations and build genuine friendships with others who understand the realities of parenthood
The Parent Chapter is a relaxed online book club designed to help parents reconnect with themselves through books, conversation and community. Babies and children are welcome to be present, interruptions are completely normal, and there's no pressure to have finished the book before joining the discussion.
This is not just another parenting group, and it's not just another book club. The Parent Chapter is a community where parents can enjoy reading, meaningful conversations and friendships without the pressure to be anything other than themselves.
Reconnect with yourself, one chapter at a time.
Designed for busy parents
We've designed the Parent Chapter to be as flexible and inclusive as possible. We meet online once a month, with two meet-ups scheduled on the same day (one daytime, one evening) – you come at the time that suits you on that day. We choose books that are under 300 pages, and there's never any pressure to finish – just turn up exactly as you are!
Parent Chapter FAQs
What is The Parent Chapter?
The Parent Chapter is a relaxed online book club designed to help parents reconnect with themselves through books, conversation and community. It's a space for the person behind the parent, with no pressure and no judgement.
Can my baby or child be around during the meeting?
Of course! Babies and children are completely welcome. We know that interruptions, feeds and unexpected moments are all part of family life, so there is absolutely no judgement.
Is The Parent Chapter a parenting advice group?
No. The Parent Chapter isn't a parenting advice group or a place where you need to discuss parenting. While we'll all share the experience of being parents, the focus is on books, conversation, connection and supporting the person behind the parent.
Is there a discount for existing Chapter 25 members?
Yes! Existing Chapter 25 members can access The Parent Chapter for just £3.99 per month. The Parent Chapter is designed as a separate community and can be enjoyed alongside your existing Chapter 25 membership.
