Starting well ensures that those first few key step in life’s journey are a step towards a healthy and happy future. The footprints we make now can and will shape the pattern we follow later in life.
How could that look and feel?
Mothers engage in healthy lifestyle behaviours
during pregnancy; and infants and children reach
their full health and wellbeing potential.
A regional multi-agency vision for
Early Years provision is in place that
is focused on positive outcomes for
children.
Families are resilient, knowledgeable and
are able to access the advice and support
they need in the right place at the right time.
Reduced risk of later mental and physical
health complications, and social problems.
Reduced risk of intergenerational transmission
of difficulties.
