All babies count

Preventing the abuse and neglect of babies by improving support for parents

Our 'All babies count' campaign highlights the vulnerability of babies and calling for better and earlier support for new parents.

The campaign launched in November 2011 and called for people to pledge their support and share the campaign through social media channels.

Our progress

We have had a lot of support from the general public and professional experts, and attention in the media and online - strengthening our call to UK governments for better support for families with new babies.

We will continue to work closely with politicians and policy makers to ensure there is sufficient, high-quality support available for parents so babies are safe and nurtured.
