Our impact, in their words
"As a homosexual man adopting with my partner, I wasn’t sure how well supported we’d be when it came to parental leave. Taking extended time off on statutory pay simply wasn’t financially realistic, and for a while, we didn’t know if becoming parents would ever be possible. The top-ups from Capital Parent meant I could step away from work and be fully present with our child, without the constant stress of income loss. It felt like genuine recognition — not just of me as a parent, but of our family. I’m incredibly grateful to have avoided choosing between my career and the chance to become a dad."

"When I found out I was pregnant, I was worried. As a bank carer on a zero hour contract, I wasn’t eligible for SMP and was only entitled to a low-rate maternity allowance. I seriously considered leaving to find a more supportive employer — until I was offered Capital Parent Pay. The top-up made a real financial difference, and the welcome pack and monthly updates made me feel seen and supported. I ended up staying with my agency and even referred friends to join. It changed how I felt about my job and my future."

"When my wife passed shortly after our son was born, everything changed overnight. I wasn’t prepared — emotionally or financially — to take time off, and I thought I’d have to go straight back to work. But my employer offered Capital Parent Pay, and that support meant I could step away and focus on my baby during the hardest time of my life. The financial top-up helped, but what meant even more was knowing I wasn’t forgotten. That kind of care is rare — and I’ll always be grateful for it."
