Abstract
This chapter captures the final theme that developed from my study, where parents reported that one of the most important aspects of the parenting programme was the opportunity to meet, share with and learn from other parents. This demonstrates how trainers were successfully adopting a Transplant model of parent-professional practice, creating the right environment for parents to share information and then build on that existing knowledge.
