From the makers of the acclaimed series 'The Baby Borrowers', 'Young Mums' Mansion' offers a radical new social experiment, following a group of young single mums and their children as they are given the opportunity to live together, share their experiences, pool their resources and see whether communal living, and the benefits it brings, can help them change their lives for the better.
The parents are from all walks of life and backgrounds, but they all share the common aim of wanting to do the best for their children.
