Early social & emotional skills babies learn, some of which they are experts at by 1 year old, are the foundations of all other development, and, so, future academic and life success. If early learning matters, start with the babies! #surestartworks @shimaahp @familysupportni

Health inequalities are every health professional’s responsibility to tackle. Definitely more evident as our health service dealt with the covid pandemic.

Great example of AHPs working regionally to help tackle health inequalities, to support the new AHP Health Inequalities framework published today by the King's Fund https://t.co/USz3h1YPYW #SureStartWorks @shimaahp

Everything Surestart stands for and supports #surestartworks

In 2019 the Institute of Fiscal Studies found that by the time they reached 11 children in Sure Start areas were 28% less likely to have needed a hospital visit. The biggest impact was on the poorest children. Invest in children, invest in early years #SureStartWorks
