Background:
Baby Week was first launched in Leeds in 2016 and this year will be celebrated in 15 cities / regions across the UK. Baby Week is celebrated annually from 14 – 20 November with the closing events taking place on World Children’s Day.
All children have the right to grow up with the best health possible, to be safe from harm, to have access to an education that enables them to fulfil their potential and of course, have fun!
Throughout the last eight years, hundreds of events have been held with thousands of attendees including parents, expectant parents, practitioners and professionals, and of course babies! Each city/ region hosting the week has the opportunity to celebrate and bring together the work of maternity and early years services, helping to raise awareness of the critical developmental growth stages and a real focus on the 1001 days in order to give every baby the best start in life.
Please note, this event is not organised by Better Start Bradford. If you have any questions about the event – or would like to check it is still running before attending – please contact the organiser directly.
