Helping professionals protect babies in the UK
The NSPCC is committed to helping all professionals and all agencies protect babies. We firmly believe that by working together, sharing knowledge and offering support, we can all do better for babies.
The latest from the campaign:
NSPCC programmes: Minding the baby
Posted: 9th February 2012
The NSPCC has created direct service to keep babies safe from harm. These help new parents cope with the challenges of parenthood, bond with their infants and care for them safely. We are working with the most vulnerable families to transform babies’ lives and ensure they have the best possible start in life.
New report: Are babies’ rights being protected in the UK?
Posted: 8th February 2012
Babies are a priority for the NSPCC and our All babies count campaign is highlighting the vulnerability of babies, and calling for more support for them and their families. It makes sense, therefore, for us to think about the rights of babies – do we think about babies when we think about children’s rights?
New booklet: Support for parents from the NSPCC
Posted: 31st January 2012
The NSPCC has published a new booklet for parents which explores the challenges of parenthood and explains more about the vulnerability of babies. Read more about this new resource and how to download your free copy.
Around 198,000 babies in the UK have parents affected by domestic violence, substance misuse or mental health problems*. These families can face significant risks and we can all do more to help
* Based on analysis of the National Psychiatric Morbidity Survey (2007), conducted for the NSPCC
by Victoria Manning (2011).
