I'm Richard Shorter (AKA www.non-perfectdad.co.uk) and I've spent 20 years supporting and encouraging parents.  I founded Non-perfectdad.co.uk to help bring coaches and parents closer together for better outcomes for young people. 

To be honest I am tired of sport parents not being given the support or recognition they should have and need. It is not an easy journey to support a developing child who is pursuing their sporting dreams. 

It is time for parents to have a space of their own which offers them the support, encouragement and insights needed on this journey.  I've had the ridiculous privilege to speak to 1000's of sport parents. I'm used by national U16, U18, U20 and a number of professional sports teams for their parent engagement. (Check out more about me here)  

This alliance is about giving you what you need as you provide a home for your sporting child(ren).
