Infant Mental Health Awareness Week (10-14 June) is this year focussing on ‘Difficult Beginnings’.

To mark the week, a number of Better Start Bradford projects are delivering a range of events and workshops to raise awareness of some of the difficulties parents can face and the way in which such difficulties can affect the baby.

Events include celebrating 150 years of the charity Family Action and a baby’s massage event at Barkerend Children's Centre.
