Yes. In England and Wales we are sending invitations to all parents listed on the child’s birth registration records. Sometimes one or both same-sex parents may not appear on the birth certificate. If you are not listed on your child’s birth registration you will not receive an invite addressed to you, but you can still take part. The interviewer will speak with the person listed on the child’s birth registration to establish this and invite you to take part.
In Scotland and Northern Ireland, we will only be inviting mothers to take part in the first instance. We will invite the child’s other parent to take part once the interviewer has visited the address.
