Early life changes to improve health and opportunities for children

Background: Our ActEarly approach focusses on early life changes to improve the health and opportunities for children living in two contrasting areas with high levels of child poverty; Bradford, West Yorkshire and Tower Hamlets, London. ActEarly has now finished and as part of our knowledge mobilisation we have created the above animation and infographic below that summarise what our project has achieved.

In each of these areas, we are working with local communities, local authorities and other national organisations to understand how we can help families live healthier and more active lives.

We have found shared priorities for research and together have chosen three key ActEarly themes: Healthy Places, Healthy Learning and Healthy Livelihoods.
